Problem setting up www.ads-software.com Account

Hi there,

I’m going to presume you are encountering issues sending emails, and not that you are receiving an automated rejection response from the email mentioned?

If that is the case, please check your outbound spamfilters first of all, as we rely on reliable email transactions to verify who individuals are (if we can’t email back and forth, then we don’t know who you are after all).

If it’s an outbound spamfilter, we would love to hear more about it of course, you may also reach out on Slack if there is information in the filter that can not be posted publicly.

Thank you Marius for your reply. The error in the email mentions “The response from the remote server was: 554 5.7.1 High probability of spam”, so I wonder if there is a filter on the receiver end to filter it out. FWIW, I did get an email when I set up my account from [email protected] for setting up the password, so the email is working one way, but I am not able to send emails to [email protected].

The actual issue with the account setup is the link that was sent to create a password is not working. When I follow the link, it either takes me to a “link has expired” or “Your account is pending approval. You will receive an email at?<email_id>?to set your password when approved.” page. The interesting thing is the original email I received was for setting up the password, so I am a bit confused as to why the link in that email is still saying “Your account is pending approval”.

It does indeed sound like your company email server is being flagged, I’ll escalate it and see if we can find out the reason, as I’m not seeing an immediate cause for it (it may have been a temporary fluke that has since been resolved, as I unfortunate did not have a chance to follow up with you yesterday).

We’ve approved the pending WP Engine accounts at this time, but we obviously can’t publicly disclose why they were kept in limbo.

We strongly recommend checking in with your mail provider why their mail services may (or have been) blocked recently, to ensure you are able to reach out in the future if similar incidents should occur.

Thank you Marius for the approvals. I will reach out to the folks who manage our emails on our side as well to see why we are having issues sending these emails.
