FAQ – Non-approved senders
March 1st, 2007 by Randy Stewart, Product ManagerBy now, you know how the Boxbe system works. Sign up for a protected email address and only people that pay, prove they are human or you pre-approve get through to you. But what does it look like to the sender?
Pre-Approval
Setting up your pre-approval list is important to ensure people that you know and trust can still email you. The easiest way to do this is to upload your address book. We’ve made uploading your address book easy.
Non-Approved Senders
When you receive an email from someone you don’t know, an email is sent to the sender.
The email says the following:
