REGION 16 MEMBERS -
YOUR COOPERATION IS REQUESTED |
In an effort to keep
the membership of Region 16 informed and up-to-date
on Region 16 News, AHA News and General Equine News
of interest, we started a REGION 16 NEWS FLASH
E-MAIL Program. As part of your membership in a
Region 16 Club you were automatically subscribed to
receive the NEWS FLASH E-MAIL.

The program that we use to distribute the NEWS FLASH
E-MAIL is equipped with a great set of stats. It
tells us, among other things, what mail was
delivered, what mail was opened, what mail was
bounced and what e-mail addresses are incorrect. The
stats on opening mail are very low. Although the
mail is confirmed as delivered, it is just not being
opened. One of the reasons may be that the mail is
being delivered to a bulk mail or spam area. Please
check your bulk mail and spam areas and do what is
necessary to deliver your Region 16 mail to your
inbox. The email is clearly marked from Region 16
with the title of - Region 16 News Flash.

If you have any questions please
Contact Us. |
