Looking for some experiences…

… with emailreg.org. A client of mine asked today if it was worth registering domains with emailreg.org as a whitelisting process.

Drop me a line on our contact page or add your experiences in the comments.
I normally reject comments with fake or forged email addresses. Because this may be sensitive and some commenters may want to be anonymous, I’ll let anonymous comments through if they’re clearly not forging someone else’s address.
