Just a heads up. I discovered this morning that emails sent from webmaster@chitown-angler.com started going to my junk folder in Hotmail. This just started so I'm assuming that someone
has reported webmaster@chitown-angler.com as Junk. Sooo what's a fella to do if this happens? You can fix it in a couple ways.
1. Find the email in your junk folder and click on the "Not Junk" button.
2. A better way is to ensure that it doesn't happen in the future. Add webmaster@chitown-angler.com to your "Safe Senders" list.

In Hotmail you do this by getting into your email. On the right hand side below your name you see an "options" button. Click that and choose "more options". On the next screen you will see several headings on the right side top is one for "Preventing Junk email". Under that is "safe and blocked senders". Next screen are three options the first of which is "safe senders". Click that heading and enter webmaster@chitown-angler.com and click button for add to list. You are done!

Similar options exist for most other email clients. I would also take a look at the list of "safe senders" you might discover how to stop some of those pesky emails. Be careful though don't delete a safe sender that you might want. But if you do just follow the steps above to add them back.

I've had an issue similar to that and I finally figured out it was my own doing. While clicking the boxes of read messages so I could delete them I clicked Junk instead of delete. All of a sudden, all the following emails I got from those people went to my junk folder.

I've been working with the team at yahoo and it isn't because we've been report, many providers have changed their policies do to the overall spam problem.

dylanapollo has mentioned one solution and we are working with other providers to ensure that we are a pass through by providing them with key server/e-mail signatures.

Thanks strobs, hotmail, yahoo and verizon all changed their policies. All e-mails from our server are sent with a digital signature and we just need these giants to get us set back up.
