Got this today. I suppose if you receive the email in question you are already on the list ;) Did come off as a little "phishy" but I'm excited to hear the news. Maybe the new "QC" :)

Why don't they just make a spot here on the forum for the news if it's that imporant (or not) that way if you want it you know where it is and if you don't ya just don't go there. Just my 2 cents worth......

Not all owners are on the newsletter mailing list and not all owners use the forum. Crazy huh?!

Crazy is right!;) I speak to machine owners every week that either do not know about their resources available to them... or worse, they know about these resources but don't actually use them! Of course, I stongly encourage everyone to become proactive by signing up for the newsletter and becoming a Forum member so they can keep up with current events, software updates, as well as enjoy tapping into the collective knowledge of their fellow carvers!

The "list" that you are asked if you want to be added to is the CarveWright Newsletter Mailing List, so if you already get it, you don't need to be added again.

Last one was March Tips & Tricks and announcing 1.162 release, before that was February.

Unless you "Unsubscribed" or NEVER received it, you do not need to be added again.

Lee:

I found you email address in the UNSUBSCRIBE LIST dated 3/30/2009. Took you off and added you back to the Newsletter Mailing List.

EVERYONE...if you accidentally UNSUBSCRIBE (which I did myself testing a link) you must be manually removed from the UNSUBSCRIBED list. It doesn't matter how many times you re-subscribe to the list, you will stay on the UNSUBSCRIBE list until we physically delete or remove you from that list.

Send email to marketing@carvewright.com and include "Put me back on the list" in the subject field. Or go to Newsletters under the Community menu at www.carvewright.com (http://www.carvewright.com)

I am on the list and get the newsletter, but I didn't get the email everyone is talking about. Either I'm not patient enough or you missed some of us.
