Email appending is a data enhancement service that matches and appends email addresses to a database based on first name, last name and postal address. An email appending process involves either a business or consumer database made up of contacts including their name, address and company name for business contacts .If the company wants to expand into email communication, then they can involve a service provider that has a database of email addresses in order to merge the data together and append business or consumer email addresses to their existent file. In this way they can have an updated database with the current email address of individuals on the list. The success of email appending obviously depends on the quality of both databases being merged. When done correctly, a permission pass is sent to contacts giving them the option to opt out of receiving future communications. Emails are also confirmed deliverable during this send, when an email is received successfully from this contacts mailbox.

Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date February 2009 Shotgun email refers to an email requesting information or action that only requires the efforts of one person but is sent to multiple people in an effort to guarantee that at least one person will respond. The shotgun email often results in multiple people responding to something already accomplished and therefore results in a loss of overall productivity. Shotgun emailing is considered poor Netiquette internet etiquette . An example would be a person of authority in a business organization sending out an email to five technicians in the information technology department of his company to let them know his computer printer printer is broken. One technician responds with an on site call and fixes the problem. Later in the day, other technicians follow up to fix the printer that is already back in order.

Certified email is an email whitelist ing technique by which an internet service provider allows someone to bypass spam filter s when sending email messages to its subscribers, in return for paying a fee to the certifying service. A sender can then be sure that his messages have reached their recipients without being blocked, or having links or images stripped out of them, by spam filters. The purpose of certified email is to allow companies to reliably reach their customers by email, while giving recipients certainty that a certified message is legitimate and is not a forged phishing attempt.

An email alias is simply a forwarding email address . The term alias expansion is sometimes used to indicate a specific mode of email forwarding , thereby implying a more wikt generic generic meaning of the term email alias as an address that is forwarded in a simplistic fashion. ref RFC 5321 defines alias expansion as opposed to the list expansion of electronic mailing list mailing lists , noting that the replacement of the address to whom bounce message s are returned makes a key difference. ref Usage Email aliases can be created on a Mail server . Each email alias simply forwards email message s on to each specified email address. Email aliases are often used to create handy replacements for long or difficult to remember email addresses. They can also be used to create generic email addresses such as webmaster example.com and info example.com. On UNIX like systems, email aliases may be placed into the file etc aliases and have the form code local alias name adifferentlocaluser, anotherlocaluser, an external.user.example.com code Control issue Messages forwarded through an email alias retain the original SMTP envelope sender and recipient. If the message is a blind carbon copy , the recipient can only tell whether the message was forwarded through the alias by examining the message headers. However, the standard does not mandate mentioning the envelope recipient in the headers. Therefore, recipients of a message may not be able to recover what email address has been used by the sender to eventually deliver the message to their email mailbox mailbox . Recipients who cannot trace what address the sender used are unable to ask the sender to stop sending, because the sender most likely will not be able to associate their current email address with the one used for sending ... may begin blocking email from the forwarding system.

An email storm is a sudden spike of Reply All messages on an email distribution list , usually caused by a controversial or misdirected message. Such storms start when multiple members of the distribution list reply to the entire list at the same time in response to the instigating message. Other members soon respond, usually adding vitriol to the discussion, asking to be removed from the list, or pleading for the cessation of messages. If enough members reply to these unwanted messages this triggers a chain reaction of email messages.
