    The History of Email and Email Design

    years ago, on October 29, 1971, Raymond Tomlinson was working on ARPANET (the U.S. Government’s precursor to the publicly available Internet) and invented email. It was a pretty big deal because, up until that point, messages could only be sent and read on the same computer. This separated a user and a destination by the @ symbol. The first email…

    Spam Laws: A Comparison of US, UK, CA, DE, and AU

    As the global economy becomes a reality, treaties are being signed that ensure that each country respects the laws of another and may even be able to take punitive action against companies that violate those laws. One area of focus for any company that’s sending emails internationally is understanding the nuances of each country as it refers to email and…

    How to Choose an Email Service Provider (ESP)

    This week, I met with a company that was considering leaving its email service provider (ESP) and building its email system internally. I would have said no if you asked me a decade ago if that were a good idea. However, times have changed, and the technology of ESPs is pretty easy to implement if you know what you’re doing.…

    The Top Legal Issues with Blogging

    A few years ago, one of our clients wrote a great blog post and they were looking for a good image to feature with it.

    Affiliate Marketing and CAN-SPAM Compliance

    I watch many of my friends in the industry play very fast and loose with regulations, and I fear they’ll one day be in trouble.

    Key Requirements of the CAN-SPAM Act

    What are the Key Requirements of the CAN-SPAM Act?

    United States regulations covering commercial email messages were regulated in 2003 under the Federal Trade Commission’s CAN-SPAM Act (CAN-SPAM). While it’s been over a decade… I still open my inbox daily to an unsolicited email that has both false information and no method to opt out. I’m not sure how effective the regulations have been, even with the threat of…

    What is Expressed versus Implied Permission?

    Canada took a stab at improving its regulations on SPAM, and the guidelines businesses must abide by when sending their email, mobile, and other push communications with the new Canada Anti-SPAM Legislation (CASL). From deliverability experts I’ve spoken to, the legislation isn’t all that clear – and I think it’s strange that we have national governments interfering with global issues.…

    Re: Trust

    It happened again. While I was reviewing the (unstoppable) list of emails that were hitting my inbox, I noticed the reply email. The subject line, of course, started with RE: so it caught my eye and I immediately opened it. But it wasn’t a reply. It was a marketer who thought they’d increase their open rate by lying to all…
