Users of BT Yahoo! (addresses ending in @btinternet.com) may have difficulty
receiving email from Wellington College.This is because BT has recently changed their policy in regard
to ‘SPAM’ or ‘Junk Email’. The new policy classifies any email with 20 or more
recipients as SPAM and places the sender on a ‘blacklist’ which automatically
blocks any future emails from that address.
The blocked messages are still accessible, but only through the BT Internet webmail service. The following instructions explain how blocked emails can be accessed and their senders marked as ‘safe’.
