Comcast Outages Hurt Ezine Publishers

February 16th, 2002

According to Ezine Tips’ latest issue, some Comcast email users have been experiencing outages over the past few days. Which means your ezine undeliverables may have gone up. Between this sort of thing, and the inevitable “soft” bounces built up from folks being out of the office over the Holidays, or having filled email boxes due to folks like Hotmail making free boxes smaller, we ended up having the subscriptions of several thousand readers of our various newsletters on hold for bouncing, even though their email addresses may still be good.

Although list cleanliness matters in the long run, this week I made sure folks are not deleted as bad addresses just quite yet. You may want to do the same on your end if you are a newsletter publisher too.
