How To Ensure You Get Our Emails
Spam (unwanted email) has been epidemic for many years and that means most email programs are very aggressive about trying to filter out all the trash. Unfortunately this sometimes means that the email you WANT to receive can not get to you.
“Whitelisting” our email domains will ensure your computer network knows that our emails are not unwanted.
The Mark Of Mastery™ sends email from 3 email domains:
- TheMarkOfMastery.com (password resets, website updates & digests)
- InfusionMail.com (in rare cases, account information)
- ComprehensiveAdvisorServices.zendesk.com (help desk, email support)
Here are 2 steps you need to take (for each email domain)
- If you are working behind a “corporate” firewall (as many of you are):
- Please ask your Information Technology (IT) department to add our domains to their “Email White-List” (They’ll know what that means).
- Otherwise our emails won’t even be able to reach your email program.
- Click on your email program (below) and follow the instructions for adding each domain
- This tells your email program that you know who we are and that our emails are not spam.
