Trying to reach my email customers! :-)

Hello all,

Please excuse this semi-commercial email but I'm trying to reconnect with many of you who subscribe to my weekly email updates!

I'm still recovering from the computer woes I briefly
described in my last update to you, but making progress.
Unfortunately, I haven't as yet been able to transfer over
all of my email addresses from the old machine to the new
(don't ask -- the details are too gruesome to recount ).

I've been sending out email
updates to customers for the past 7 years using the
HTML function of Microsoft Outlook Express. That
was ok when my list went to a few hundred
customers, but less satisfactory with several
thousand. Due to the computer malfunction,
the 'groups' that I created for that purpose are still
inaccessible, so I thought it better to start over
anyway. Also, certain browsers had difficulty in
properly rendering the HTML from Outlook Express, so
I had to move those customers to a 'text only' group,
which was less than satisfactory.

I've wanted to try 'Constant Contact' for some time,
so here's my opportunity -- even if it was somewhat
forced upon me! I've sent out a few updates today
using that technology to the few customers (less than
100) that I've been in touch with in the past 2 weeks,
as those were the email addresses I had on this new
computer.

However, if you've been a regular subscriber to the updates
in the past, and *didn't* receive one of those today
(and would like to), please go to the homepage, www.hisnibs.com and just enter your email
address in the box under 'Sign up for our email update'
near the top of the page.

One of the nice features of Constant Contact is that
the recipient can easily subscribe or unsubscribe from
the update by just clicking on a link. So, please feel
free to sign up just to see what the new format looks
like, knowing that you can unsubscribe easily at any
time.

Thank you!
