Friday 8th September, 2006 DSNetwork is the name I thought up to label the new service offered by Deliverer.biz. Basically speaking, you can now download your own copy of the Deliverer Safe List software and then add your own addresses to build your very own sorted safe list. LYou get all the regular f eatures of course, such as reduced send switching and repeat message protection (RMPS). All you need is a suitable web host and a domain to upload the files to. So, those of you who have had a hankering for a safe list web site NOW is your chance.
There are some provisos, however, and these are clearly stated here. It means you have to take 5% of Deliverer.biz's output and send 5% of it to your own Deliverer Safe List. If you don't like this idea you can pay extra and buy the Independent version.
Friday 14th November, 2003 Here is a technique to write email subject lines with content code information.
How then should we go about labelling our mailings? Subject lines vary but are usually about 60 characters long. In this space you need to convey as much information as possible or come up with a fancy, catchy slogan or phrase which will entice the reader to open the mail. This article does not deal with the creation of catchy advertising slogans but an ENE code can easily be placed after a slogan and it is perhaps here where the code will work best. Readers often struggle to guess what is inside an email with a slogan and the only answer is to open it and find out. With a slow connection in a busy, commercial mailbox this can be very wasteful and frustrating. With this new code added to the end of each subject line the reader can get a good idea of the content from just the subject line and and thus save much time opening unwanted emails.
If you are not using slogans then this author recommends a simple wording which should be reasonably understandable to most people and consists of using just the 'core' of the web site name or service which is the subject of the email or part email (see list A below).
Then the actual ENE code is produced thus: after the slogan or primary, core name open square brackets; then a capital E followed by an optional capital N and E; then the number of the secondary code which indicates the type of content in the email e.g. 2, 5, 3 (see List B below); then a tertiary, suffix code e.g. a,i,j (see List C below) which indicates further the purpose of the email; then finally close the square brackets. The completed code should be placed at the right hand end of the subject window after the slogan or primary, core name of the website or service etc. This full code, then, is what I call ENE code (short for Elucidated Normal Email), and should be derived and used as outlined above. N.B. Subject lines should be pre-written with the correct ENE code and then copied and pasted at sending time into the subject line window of email clients or safe lists' 'send email' pages.
The tertiary, suffix code is placed after the secondary, numerical code to further elucidate to the reader what the purpose of the mail is about (see List C below).
N.B. Extra suffix codes can be added here as desired and readers should check this site to find out what they are.
Multiple subjects are supported separated, ideally, by a space or comma.
E.g. bigGmall [E1j], BigSafe [E2i], Fredbloggs [E4v]

I saw your ad in the MLM ezine and I thought you might be interested in exchanging links (the reason for the email is to request a link exchange so the tertiary code is u). I have an English language correspondence course (the web site is concerned with education so the secondary code is 5) page at
http://www.nigelbarksfield.co.uk/esl.html (the core name is in bold)
It offers courses on and offline especially designed to meet the needs of each student and costs US 53 dollars but for this price you get a lifetime of support after the course is finished. You get a pronunciation tape and a certificate too.
Thanks for your time. If I can help any more please don't hesitate to ask.
