Blocked Email

That annoying advertising E-mail, commonly known as "spam" has become a big problem for all of us. It has reached such proportions that most E-mail services and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) have put at least one stringent blocking or filtering system in place, which all of our E-mail must go through.

The problem is these blocking systems often stop E-mail which you want to receive and read. In fact, you might find you are not receiving any of our E-mail based services such as the Rocky Mountain Wing CAF communications List, "Email Me My Password" results, etc.

Here are things you can do to insure that you will receive this important information coming.

A tip for everyone using any type of E-mail software...

Add our E-mail address to your Contact List:

Step 1 - Open the program in which you use to read your E-mail.

Step 2 - Add "Rocky Mountain Wing communications" and its corresponding address communications@rockymountainwingcaf.org to your E-mail address book to give you a better chance at receiving it.

Step 3 - Ask them if they can white-list the newsletters that you get from @airbase1.com or @rockymountainwingcaf.org. They will probably ask you for some information about us.
