MySpace Adopts CertifiedEmail to Safely Deliver Authentic and Legitimate Mail
Goodmail Systems, the creator of CertifiedEmail™, the industry’s standard class of trusted email, is providing a safe, reliable way for trusted senders to deliver mail to the MySpace community. CertifiedEmail provides a safe and reliable means for consumers to easily identify authentic mail messages from legitimate commercial and nonprofit email senders.
“MySpace is doing email right by using CertifiedEmail from the very start, and it’s exciting to be an integral part of the product,” said Goodmail Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Peter C. Horan. “Goodmail technology assures the safe delivery of legitimate messages into MySpace mailboxes.”
“MySpace Mail empowers our users to connect with people and content outside MySpace in a new way,” said Rajit Marwah, director of product management for MySpace Mail. “We want to ensure users have the best experience when receiving rich messages from accredited senders, and Goodmail is helping to deliver that.”
Goodmail’s pioneering vision is to protect users from bad mail like viruses, spam and phish mail, by highlighting safe and trustworthy messages. Consumer recognition, confidence in, and growing demand for Goodmail’s inbox-visible Blue Ribbon Envelope Trust Seal icon is based on the adoption by MySpace along with many of the world’s most successful commercial and non-profit organizations, and seven of the Top 10 Internet Service Providers and the Top 20 Email Service Providers.
