I would like to make sure none of my accounts have missed the required confirmation.
The emails mention:
"If you don't wish to click the link above, you can log into your MyFreeola account at http://freeola.com/myfreeola-control-panel/, where you will be asked to confirm your forwarding."
I've looked a number of times and haven't been asked for this?
Am I missing something?
Thanks.

A bit too late though......
If you don't receive the reply in the next few minutes, let me know and I'll send it to you directly via 'normal' email.
EDIT:
I raised another ticket and the confirmation came through (160548).
Perhaps my first ticket got messed up with either my typos or 'cos for the question about affected email addresses I put "Lots".
I've run out of time for now - back in the morning.

This just goes to show however conscientious you may try to be you can still get caught out!

It also might be worth mentioning to your customers that emails from Freeola might be important (for those that actually did receive the email obviously)
All this has been rather bad timing for me :¬(
Can I suggest that you use a similar process as in use for Domain Renewals?
i.e. either just using the configured address for renewal reminders or adding a new category in the existing 'Email Alerts and Subscriptions' for 'Email admin confirmations'?
NB. The domain renewals email option was setup at my suggestion a few years back and works well.
I register and renew many domains for people that can't do it themselves or don't wish to do it themselves. This is the same for email configuration - I try make things easy for some people that like to work like that.
Obviously at the very least MyFreeola should get the confirmation request as in the past. This was the reason for my original post...
Re. The 'Freeola emails are important' reference.
A number of my clients did contact me so they haven't been caught out. But some may not have received the email or thought it to be junk etc. Most of those that did receive it contacted me as they didn't understand it! That's part of the service I try to provide - allowing people to use Freeola ADSL and Domains but removing them from any techie bits if that's what they want.
I think some of my clients were also confused by multiple email requests if they had a number of email accounts. Either they stopped reading them or they were assigned to junk.
If you would like any further feedback please let me know.

However I will definately pass on your comment in regards to a system similar to domain renewals as this sounds like a good idea to me.
And in relation to your clients, I understand fully. Doing what you do will not have it's own complexities though. Hopefully you know by now we will do our best to try and smoothe any issue out promptly.

This was never the case for e-mail forwarding housekeeping, only for the removal of f500 addresses through non-use.
This is being implemented for future forwarding housekeeping, however.

Hi Butch,
I can assure you it has been in place for email in the past.

I've been receiving a number of emails from Freeola regarding annual email housekeeping over the last few days.
I would like to make sure none of my accounts have missed the required confirmation.
The emails mention:
"If you don't wish to click the link above, you can log into your MyFreeola account at http://freeola.com/myfreeola-control-panel/, where you will be asked to confirm your forwarding."

Hi Freeola,
I've just started to receive similar 'email housekeeping' emails as mentioned in this old post.
Again I've logged into MyFreeola as instructed but as before I'm not seeing any option to confirm my email forwarding?!
I obviously want to avoid what happened last time round so please advise what action I should take.
EDIT: Support Ticket 179899 also raised.
Thanks,
