Netzero, Juno and Bigfoot Users
The FTVA is unable to e-mail you if you use Netzero, Juno or Bigfoot for your e-mail service. These providers reject 100% of the e-mails we send. Unlike larger providers, these providers do not provide a way to request access to their network for valid e-mails. The only work around we have found is to have our members set up Hotmail, Google Mail or Yahoo mail accounts. |
