Thank you for subscribing to The Crafty Musician!
I'd hate for you to miss out on important posts and updates coming from me especially since you took the time to join me here. So, I wrote this short post to show you how to get all my e-mails in your inbox.
To make sure you are receiving e-mails from The Crafty Musician do this:
Add my e-mail address (anitrajay@thecraftymusician.com) to your e-mail white list or your e-mail contacts. This will bypass your e-mail's blocking program and allow messages I'm sending to you to go straight to your inbox.
Why is this important?
Spam is a big problem and Internet Service Providers have put measures in place to block certain messages from ever reaching you by automatically filtering them out of your inbox. Unfortunately, sometimes even e-mails you requested to receive, such as your personal subscription e-mails from me get filtered out too. That's why it's important to take this step now so that your delivery won't be interrupted.
Here are some instructions on how to do it. I put together instructions from popular e-mail service providers. If you don't see your ISP here, contact your ISP’s customer service for their instructions. Please do me a favor if this is the case - forward the answer to me, and I'll add it here for the next person.
