Announcement: EBuzzzz email marketing FROM: policy

Dear Valued Customers,

Starting on June, 2016, Gmail will update its DMARC policy to prohibit third party email services from sending messages using an @gmail.com address as the sender.

Due to this policy, it will no longer be possible to use a Gmail address to send a marketing campaign or transactional email using any email marketing platform, such as EBuzzzz.

Gmail has changed its DMARC policy to ‘p=reject’, effective 1st June 2016.

Detail of the announcement:

https://dmarc.org/2015/10/global-mailbox-providers-deploying-dmarc-to-protect-users/

What is DMARC?

DMARC stands for Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting & Conformance. It allows domains to instruct mail servers to reject messages using that domain in the From address, if the message did not originate from that domain’s own mail server.

Suggestion

Please do not use a free email services provider email address (Gmail/Yahoo/Hotmail) at FROM: during your marketing campaign.

If you have your own domain then may use it as FROM: address then change the REPLY-TO: to your own prefer email address.

Kindly add in include:spf.mschosting.com at your current SPF record.

If you do not have any domain, you are encourage to get a domain and hosting plan through us.

Please drop an email to sales@exabytes.sg if you need any assistance on the domain or hosting account signup.

Summary

Do not use any free email services provider email address at FROM: , especially Gmail.
