To the recipients of our monthly newsletter -

Dear Readers.
Recently, our email account (with Google) has changed policies and no longer allows for mass emails to be sent out to people listed as blind carbon copies. The reasoning is attributed to Google's crack-down on spam emails, however, it is pretty dangerous territory when our email service providers feel they have the power to decide what emails we do and do not receive. I get spam every day, and I flag it as spam and it is gone - next time it arrives, it goes straight into the spam folder.
Not only is it uncomfortable to think that my emails are now being censored before they reach me, but it places us in a strange spot having developed a mailing list of nearly 200 people who wished to receive our monthly newsletter, but now cannot.
Google did say that I could still set up a mass-email newsletter, only if I did it through Google Groups. This would involve changing the email address and sending out solicitations to everyone from the current list and hoping that they feel like joining. To sum it up, it is not OK to send people spam, unless you are using the "new and improved Google Groups" device to do it.
Please voice your concern today to Google if you do not want your emails censored. We apologize if this month's newsletter is late. We are still trying to find a solution to this strange problem.
