Information about MGBC Email - August 28, 2007 updated 10/16/07 Recently many of the email accounts for MGBC have been hit with a large amount of spam. Spam today can be much more than just a "bother" To discourage unwanted spam (is any of it wanted?) a "verification" process is in place on MGBC email accounts. When a person sends a email to a mgbc email account you will be sent back a "verification" email to ensure that you are a real person and not a robot computer sending spam. (Robots do not normally answer the verification). All you have to do is hit reply and send - no additional text is needed - Do NOT change the subject line. You will then be sent an approval email stating that you have been added to the approved list of senders. Following this procedure all future emails will be delivered automatically without the verification process - per mgbc email account. Most of us have been to websites or subscribed to email newsletters where there is a type of verification process in place. update 09/29/07: Emails sent by automated systems may not respond to the verification process resulting in that particular email not being delivered. Examples include e-cards & other items sent via a 3rd party other than yourself. If you have any questions or comments please send a email via the link at the bottom of this page - that address does not use the verification/challenge process. update 10/16/07: Different Subject Email that is sent to the pastor is previewed by one of the ministry assistants. If you are sending personal or sensitive information you should be aware of this practice. All email sent to other ministers, the ministry assistants or to the prayer line email address is not previewed/screened prior to delivery by anyone. The prayer line email is automatically directed to a staff minister only. Generally speaking email is a poor method of sending any specific personal information that you would not want the world to possibly see - this applies to all email from and to all sources.
thanks
