I got an email ad that appears to come from this forum? It has the Forums banner.

I am assuming its Spam and its content is not sanctioned buy this Forum?

Am I correct?
See email info below.

No this is not spam but comes from the Leica Forum.

It's advertising with a special deal for Leica Forum members.

Helps to fund the forum operation...

 

Sorry for the confusing domains (return.systemkamera-forum.de / leica-camera-forum.com).

^{On this same topic, I'm being told that E mails sent to me by the forum are being returned and I'm being asked to give my new E mail address.}

^{My E mail address has not changed and remains the same. I assume that the reason for the returns is that the messages are classed as spam.}

 

^{Could an Admin sort this out as I'm getting this message each time I log in?}

I use an Apple account for my email on the forum. 99% of the email notifications go straight to spam. I have no idea how to set the filter differently.

 

I have set the forum software to keep me logged in at all times.

Sorted the problem. I jumped to the conclusion it was because of spam but upon checking the Email address was out of date. I've changed it now and all seems ok. I didn't think I'd been a member that long!
