I don't know any more than that about it. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97115 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 16:37:59 +0000 Tom 97115@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>fimm: <em>"I'm sure you can get software to help you send out emails to groups"</em></p> <p><a href="http://www.mailchimp.com/">MailChimp</a> is very good for that. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97061 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 09:52:21 +0000 fimm 97061@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I don't appear to have had the problem email, but I did get some stuff about being a cycle friendly employer - with nothing in the title field. I nearly binned it unopened, and I did bin it once I realised what it was. </p> <p>I'm sure you can get software to help you send out emails to groups - I think the mountaineering club I'm in uses something to do this. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97041 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 22:39:57 +0000 gembo 97041@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Was my workplace email. They had it from when they helped us become a cycle friendly employer. Is out in the public domain. Would possibly be grumpier if my personal e-mail </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97039 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 22:34:52 +0000 Darkerside 97039@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I'm clearly grumpier than some of you when it comes to my personal information :p </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97032 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 21:51:16 +0000 wingpig 97032@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I got the apology first, then the original, then the futile recall. This is after I asked to be removed from their dist list after the workplace poster-spam episode. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97030 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 21:24:52 +0000 Uberuce 97030@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>It's a pretty epic cc field. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97028 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 21:18:45 +0000 DaveC 97028@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I didn't get the initial emails either. Perhaps they successfully recalled the originals. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97017 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 20:33:21 +0000 Arellcat 97017@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Like gembo I received the apology but not the original e-mails. They didn't get filtered as junk, as far as I know. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97015 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 20:24:35 +0000 gembo 97015@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I received the apology email from Big Matt, lovely guy, but I didn't receive any of the others, the spam fritters / filters got em I guess </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97006 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 18:27:03 +0000 DaveC 97006@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Mistakes happen, My email address is certainly in the public domain. I let my spam filter take care of stuff I might not want to see. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=9283#post-97005 Tue, 15 Jan 2013 18:21:58 +0000 Darkerside 97005@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Ouch...</p> <p>I'm assuming at least a few of you received a bunch of Cycling Scotland emails this afternoon? Can't see the full distribution as I'm on the tablet and got bored scrolling, but they've just sent their New Year update to a sizeable mailing list, and put all the email addresses in the 'to' field. So every address is visible to everyone.</p> <p>I'm not greatly reassured by the followup email assuring everyone that data protection was a priority. If that was the case, it wouldn't have been possible in the first place.</p> <p>Excellent way to make a body lobbying professional organisations on 'our' behalf look rather amateur. </p>
