Yes, you are subscribed to the newsletter.

I'll check the mailer logs..

edit: checked, yours was sent on Sep. 6th, at 23.20.51, will check for any bounce messages now.

edit 2: there was a bounce message, from Google:
"This message was blocked because its content presents a potential security issue."

I'll look into this, because it probably means that everyone with a gmail address did not receive the newsletter.

edit 3: I see now that a couple of hundred gmail accounts did not receive the newsletter, because apparently
a one page PDF with a puzzle on it is a security threat [glare]

A suggested solution is to upload the PDF to Google Drive, and then send the link to it, I'll try that.

Thanks :)

same thing: google flagged the newsletter as a security risk.

I'll need to set something up for the gmail addresses, and resend it.

What format (order) do you enter the solution ? I'm pretty sure I've done it correctly but can't get it to accept it when entering under books as 30mil.

You can just go row by row (any whitespace is ignored)

So you could enter it with 12 digits for the first 4 rows, then 2 rows of 14 digits,
and 2 of 6, and so on (for example).

Patrick,
Please, could you post something in this thread when you figure out what to do with the gmail email addresses?

Thank you in advance,

It took some work (wrote a script that analyzes the bounce messages,
reworked sender script to use gmail addresses that come from that, etc. etc.),
but the "gmail adjusted" emails are going out now :-)
