ACABS Update
Dear all,
Firstly, I must apologise on the ACABS email issues that some of you encountered, you didn't receive emails from ACABS email account. (As result I have to send this email from my personal account.) It has been an ongoing issue for a while now. It is mainly caused by the recipient client recognise the sender domain as a spam, so emails are deleted without notice to the recipient or the sender. I am now working with the webmaster to resolve this issue, if can’t, I am looking into change to a different bulk email distribution provider. When we have 400-500 email addresses it is a bit hard to manage manually.
Get-together BBQ, ACABS AGM and Medtech Seminar
