E-Communications and "Undeliverable" Email
As discussed above, the federal "CAN-SPAM Act" places restrictions on how Internet users may send email messages where the primary purpose of the message is commercial advertisement or promoting a commercial product or service. Please refer to the CAN-SPAM Act for further definition of "commercial messages."

MICHBIO uses an email blast system to send our email notices. If MICHBIO is notified that your email address is "undeliverable", e-communications to you from any or all of MICHBIO may be stopped. We have listed possible reasons as to why email messages from the MICHBIO may not be accepted by your email system and include SPAM-blocking measures or email server issues used by (a) your organization's network, (b) your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or (c) your personal mail preferences. These reasons include:
•   Your email server was off-line/down
•   Your mailbox was full or your email address invalid
•   Your ISP or mailbox filter filed the message into a junk, spam or trash folder
•   The network or ISP found a "black-listed" domain name or Internet Protocol (IP) address. This "blocking" may be for a MICHBIO domain; or SPAM and/or virus scanning software found a "suspicious" keyword or a message as possibly harmful.

Here are some suggested steps you can take:
Some systems have a "white list" or "trusted list". Please put the MICHBIO domain on these lists so that MICHBIO email can reach you. MICHBIO can provide you with the exact IP address information that you/your IT department can use to add to the organization's white list. Also, adding the MICHBIO domain to your address book may assist this process:
•   All MICHBIO email notices list MICHBIO in the "From" line.
•   Please be sure that MICHBIO has your current email address. Update it at MY PROFILE on the MICHBIO Site.

MICHBIO would like to continue to include you in our email communications. If you have questions or concerns about the use of these options or how MICHBIO communicates with you, please contact us at 734-527-9150.
