normal@jjcf.info to get individual.

[spoiler intro=”Q” title=”Why does it take so long for my messages to be delivered to the list?”] A. JJCF is a moderated list; all emails have to be approved by a JJCF list moderator before they are sent to the group.  Since we are all human beings who do, occasionally, take time away from the computer, it may take several hours before your email is reviewed, or days if it’s over Shabbos/Yom Tov.  In the meantime, please be patient and don’t re-post the same message. [/spoiler]

[spoiler intro=”Q” title=”I’m not receiving my JJCF mails!  What’s wrong?”]A. While we have set up our bulk mail to comply with international anti-spam conventions, some service providers are over-sensitive and falsely flag JJCF mails as spam.  In particular, corporate email domains are usually very strict on non-work email, and Yahoo Mail continually rejects our postings no matter what we do.  You can try to contact your domain host and request that they whitelist mails from the jjcf.info domain, but a surer way to ensure you get all your mails is to sign up for a free gmail.com address and use this for JJCF.  If Gmail falsely flags your JJCF mails as spam (search for “in:spam”), then at least you have the ability to create a filter so that your JJCF mails do not get sent to the spam folder.[/spoiler]
