Your Working E-Mail Address Is Important To TAPR

As we transition our office operations to a reduced paper operation your email address is becoming more importatant to us. I know many of your are reluctant to spread your email address around just as we are. You may have noticed that the office e-mail address as well as those of members and officers are not provided in plain text on the website anymore.

We do ask for your e-mail address whenever you place an order or join. These addresses are used only to contact you when necessary for the processing of the order. As we transition to a paperless office, they will also be used to remind you of renewal time for your membership. Some of you may have already been the 'target' of our initial attempts to send you a renewal reminder.

What our trial reminder e-mails have shown is that a high percentage of addresses in our records are no longer working. This is most likely because many are trying to avoid spam and change addresses when the old one becomes too much of a target. Another reason is the result of ISPs such as Comcast and TWC (Roadrunner) having swapped customers. If you are one of these lucky ones, please contact us with your new address.

What's the point of this little article? Please trust TAPR with an e-email address which is likely to remain workable for at least a year and update us if you do need to change your address. We're not going to share it with anyone else. We won't even give it to another member without your OK.

If you have an e-mail screening feature that requires an entry in a white list or other means of authorization, please contact us for the addresses to use.

P. S. there's no connection between our membership database and the address database for any email list you may belong to. So unfortunately you'll have to notify the office and also change your e-mail reflector setting separately.
