Instructions for White-Listing (Allowing) Karaokeware Software related E-Mails

E-mail systems today are using more and more filtering schemes to try to keep spam out of their users' inboxes. Sometimes they accidentally filter the e-mail that you want to receive. In many cases you are not notified, and neither are we, that e-mails from Karaokeware didn't get through.

To make sure that e-mails from Karaokeware (e.g. order-related, promotional, or support) are not blocked, or not automatically filtered into your "junk" or "bulk" e-mail folder, please add "Karaokeware" and "Invicion" to your list of trusted e-mail senders (your white list).

Please take a moment to white-list us now, before you miss an important e-mail from Karaokeware!

Others

Many popular e-mail programs, including Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, and Netscape don't provide a convenient way for you to white-list the folks you want to receive e-mail from. If you're using this sort of e-mail system and you either aren't getting your Karaokeware emails or want to make sure you continue to receive your Karaokeware emails in the future, you can do something about it (read more below).

These programs also work with 3rd party spam blocking software. If you use a 3rd party spam blocker, we've included instructions for the most popular ones such as McAfee's spamkiller, and Symantec's Norton AntiSpam above, follow those directions, otherwise read below for details on how to make sure you get your e-mail from Karaokeware.

Further instructions on Making Sure You Get Your E-mail

Contact the customer service people or the Postmaster at the company that provides your e-mail or Internet connection (your ISP). Explain to them that emails from Karaokeware are e-mails that you asked for and value. Ask them if they can white-list Karaokeware. They'll probably ask you for some information about us. Here's what to tell them:

• Sending Address: If they ask for our address, give them the addresses listed below.
  • sales@invicion.com
  • support@invicion.com

One vital thing you can do that helps no matter what e-mail system you're using is this: add the following domains and e-mail addresses to your address book:

• Domains:
  • invicion.com
  • karaokeware.com
• E-mail:
  • sales@invicion.com
  • support@invicion.com

Thank you for white-listing Karaokeware.
