Got questions?

With my travel / vacation in October, blogging has been light the last few weeks, including a brief hiatus of our Ask Laura series. I’m working hard for the next few editions of Ask Laura and will get those posts out soon.
We’ve been getting questions from readers for a while, but I want to encourage folks to contact us with more. What are your questions about email? Got a problem you’ve been looking for specific answers about, but can’t find any answer that seems to apply? Use our contact address to send it to me.
Upcoming articles include questions about using IP pools and answers to some questions about opt-out processes.
Looking forward to getting back into the swing of Ask Laura, so keep those questions coming.
