Astro orders going to spam

I had a similar problem with a very important email from my uni. It's bloody ridiculous how this stuff can happen.

I'll probably start using the same thing from now on.

Guys my protonmail is banned from emailing for 35 hours due to "spamming". Meaning I can't reply to the emails I currently have. All because I was on a good roll with astrology and sending orders out like a ninja, and replying in a timely fashion to those who emailed me.

I will probably get a new protonmail account and confirm it here so you all know it's me, that way I have 2 for just in case situations like this.

Ffs...

they probably saw the message but just did not respond.

that's weird proton mail would do that...

Alright everyone, my new email address is [ email redacted ]. I will include a link to this post for verification when I send from it, but I will still check my previous one as well.

Happy Mabon everyone :)

Terrible you got banned for something like that Lydia.

Even protonmail is not perfect. What a world we live in that sending emails is difficult to do.

Well, that account was deactivated due to "fraudulent" activities. My brand new account, after 1 hour of it being up. I'm speechless.

Everyone, I don't know what to do right now. In case of emergency email me at [ email redacted ], it's the only one that works now.

I sent 8 emails this morning, replying to astrology emails, please don't reply to lydia_astrology protonmail. I"m going to have to email you all from gmail.

I'm going to just do some yoga, meditate, probably mentally yell at protonmail for them fucking up 2 of my accounts in one day. I've sent them emails.

I'd like to put on some steel-toed boots and kick protonmail right between the legs.

I once put on some boxing gloves and punched a dead tree as hard as I could for 15 minutes straight while visualizing someone and they almost died...... Not sure if this would work for protonmail. I heard they were really good, not sure why the problems now...

Or rather the owner? :p

I’ve heard of this. Proton mail takes takes their security seriously and have all kinds of automated trigger systems to detect ‘spamming’. One is if repeated mails are undelivered. And they have a quota for amount of emails you can send in a day.

Also, they store emails used for verification of free accounts so if a second account is made and the same verification email is used again, it’ll cause this problem.

It really sucks cause they take they’re sweet time getting back often, but they usually do and will unlock the account after the 35 hour period.

From what I heard paid accounts don’t have these problems, but it’ll all be fine. Just a waiting game, but I hope they get back to you faster and resolve this.

What? I have 5 ProtonMail accounts and they never banned any of them. Must be an enemy attack for sure. I also have a Tutanota account (don't make doubles on there because they're not allowed). https://www.tutanota.com/

Spam is a big problem for email. They have to be vigilant, and it doesn't help that in their mind Zevism is associated with "bad". (Although in a way it is flattering to have Zevists and hackers associated, because hackers are some of the smartest people alive.) To combat spam, there are public databases of blacklisted mail servers. To keep their own server off of those lists, Proton Mail needs to reduce the amount of spam coming from them. I suspect they somehow associated your new account with your old one. They likely recognized your IP address, or some other trackable piece of information.

What you can try:

1. Clear your web browser cookies. (This option is usually under the History menu.)
2. Change your public IP address. Depending on your Internet provider, this may or may not be possible. To begin, Google "What's My IP" and write down the x.x.x.x address it gives you. For Comcast, you'll need to change the MAC address of your router. In your web browser, navigate to http://192.168.1.1 and enter the default password for your router (brand and model), then there should be a page for "MAC Address Clone". Enable the option, and increment the least significant digit by 1, then save the changes. Now unplug your router, then your modem, then plug in your router, wait for it to boot up, then plug in your modem. Google "What's My IP" again. If the address does not match the one you wrote down earlier, then you have succeeded! Your public IP address is now different. (If this doesn't work, then try Googling "Change public IP for [Your Router Model]".)
3. Create a new Proton Mail account, and DO NOT mention your old account(s) in emails you send from there. That might flag your new account as associated with your old one. You can inform people about your new address through gmail or these forums.
4. If you want multiple email accounts, use a different service for each one. (Yandex, Yahoo, AOL, etc.) You will be flagged as less "suspicious" if you only have one account at each service.

Let me know if you have any questions!

they probably saw the message but just did not respond.

No, "mailer daemon" immediately sent it back with the notice that it was rejected by spam folder, which meant I could not send orders to them or even contact them from my protonmail.

...

That is probably the reason then, I used the same back-up email. Thanks.

...

It's because of the astrology orders, I'm sending all in text, word, pdf, plus the image of their charts, so it's a bulk amount for each one, and I did a bunch in one week, every day sending one.

...

Thank you, I will do what you advised!

Possibly consider a paid proton mail account if you don’t have one, that way your business isn’t interrupted in the future. If you don’t have one, you should be able to upgrade the current one.

I’ve heard this stuff happening to people’s businesses when they used free accounts and it’s frustrating. A few undelivered mails and they’re banned. Even though it’s temporary it’s infuriating when a person is running a business. And support can be slow, whereas priority support is given to the premium users.

It's also especially useful if you want to keep your e-mails archived there, as the free account fills up reasonably fast and you will have to delete old e-mails to make space again.

I do not doubt their service, I believe it's legitimate, but on the other hand, if you plan to getting a paid mailbox, really think again.

Didn’t know that specific stuff with proton mail. Only have acquaintances using it. For a business, though, depending on the country, those expenses could be tax deductible. Money you’d be giving away anyway, and you might have less problems with interruptions to day to day operations. But yeah, wise consideration before going to the paid plan of course. Cause most subscriptions to most services, this isn’t atypical. They’re always trying to squeeze money out of you for needless supplemental add ons or whatever. Simply being aware of this scheme can prevent many money’s going down the drain. The individual must just weigh the pros and cons to their business and situation, but good to point out those potential cons.

Thanks everyone for your input, and HP Zevios Metathronos, good to know about that.

My old account is fine now, [ email redacted ], so I will keep it as my main one. However, for those of you receiving orders from me, I will email you from my gmail and ask you to email my protonmail then I will send your order in the reply. That way, I don't get banned again when a spam folder automatically rejects it. It might be a bit inconvenient, but this happened 4 times in 2 weeks lately.
