How to make sure a newsletter gets to your inbox

After you’ve subscribed to Today’s General Counsel, we want to make sure you get your daily newsletter in the right place. Here are a few tips for ensuring our emails make it to your inbox based upon your email provider. For all email providers, be sure to add “news@todaysgeneralcounsel.cfmvmail.com” to your contact list.

Pro tip: Make sure to check your Spam folder. If you ever see one of our emails in your Spam folder, be sure to mark it and all future messages from the sender as not spam. Also, make sure your inbox is not full, as this will prevent the delivery of the newsletter.
