6.

After I sign-up, what emails should I expect from you?

bullet

Immediately after you register, you are sent an email titled: "Response necessary to complete subscription". You must respond to this email to confirm and complete your registration

bullet

After registration is confirmed, you receive an email titled: Registered for CT eNotes

Back to Top

7.

What is Opt-In registration?

bullet

Opt-In registration requires you to respond to a confirmation email. This system protects you from receiving unwanted emails and from anyone else trying to sign you up without your knowledge

bullet

If you do not respond, you will NOT have completed sign-up and you will NOT receive any CT eNotes

Here is how it works: Immediately after you sign-up, a confirmation email is sent to the registered email address. You must click on the link provided or reply to the email. This confirms your registration

bullet

The downside to this type of system is that you will NOT be registered if you do NOT respond to the confirmation email

8.

I signed up for CT eNotes but haven't received any confirmation mailing. Is this a problem? What should I do?

Yes, it is a problem. Here are three possibilities and solutions:

bullet

You never received the confirmation email

It is possible that you entered an incorrect email address. Go back to the sign-up form, re-enter your email and check over the information you provided. If your email address is incorrect, cancel your sign-up and start over.

bullet

You received the confirmation email but did not reply

If you do not confirm, you are automatically removed from the CT eNotes registration. Go back and re-signup

bullet

You confirmed your email address but did not receive your welcome letter

Your ISP (Internet Service Provider such as Earthlink, AOL, or your institution or organizations mail server) may not permit HTML mail or email that contains images. Go to Update Your Profile link (on the CT eNotes you received). Check that you want to receive text only email

If you still do not receive your welcome letter, you may need to use an email address from a different ISP

Many institutional email providers (such as the NHS) do not permit mailings like CT eNotes™. If you use a free service (e.g. Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo) you should have no difficulties. You need to go back and sign up for CT eNotes™ and use this type of email address

9.

What is the difference between HTML and text only emails?

bullet

HTML email is email that contains pictures, graphics, and otherwise looks similar to a web page

bullet

Text only email is email that contains only text. It omits any special highlights, colors, pictures and graphics

bullet

Some ISP (Internet Service Provides) do not permit HTML email.

12.

Why do I have to verify my email before making any changes to my CT eNotes subscription?
