Sign on works but emails don’t
I can Sign on but when I reply to a Ad it appears not to work! I Check the Box to send email to me! It doesn’t show up in my email. I’ve looking for Ads that have a phone number. I’ve called them, they didn’t get my reply. Sent it again while we were to the phone! NATA, ZIP! Nothing! I’ve sent several Help Emails! No reply! So What’s up! I’ve heard that is problems with Spam! Hope this can be resolved. Than You!
Hi Winston!
I have recently joined the Briar Press team as we work toward improving functionality for this website. If you’re willing to message me directly, we would appreciate your help working on email failures such as the one you are experiencing!
Thanks in advance!

I’ve replied to Classified Wanted ads checking the box to send a copy of my email to me! It doesn’t come. If the ad had a phone number I called them. They didn’t get my reply to their ad! So, whats up with the site.
New to Briar press (and Letterpress in general)…
Setup my account but never got a login email.
Sent message to support and got good help from Robyn (the password was manually entered and sent to me in an email… that worked fine…
Then registered my press name but never got an email to send Prop Cards to…
Where do I send my prop cards?
Seems like the automation sends mail that ISP don’t deliver to subscribers,,, There were stronger protocols enabled by nearly all email hosts in 2023… a hosting service of Briar Press may not have updated email verification protocols…
This email issue should be easily resolved by having the hosting service update the DNS record to include SFP and DMARC details to the DNS record.

Hi Steve, Robyn here, I just sent you an email on where to send your prop cards. Apologies for not answering that portion of your email!
Eric is currently working on some site updates to hopefully fix some of these issues we’ve been having regarding emails.
I am curious about how long it takes, once the Prop Cards have been sent, for the Press name to appear in the list; how do I know my registration has been accepted, of if it has been rejected…
My Prop Cards should have been received by Eric on 10/4 or 10/6… I’d have thought it would be a simple matter to input data into a database read by the web page, maybe a 10 min task, but perhaps only done occasionally…
Just wondering…

Hi Steve, Robyn here, I just reached out to Eric about the prop card; hoping for an update soon!
Curiouser & Curioser…
it seems like things may have broken with the registration process.
Perhaps a new press request arrives so infrequently that the process becomes a lost art; or maybe Eric is otherwise occupied with more pressing (perhaps medical) concerns…
As well, it could just be the bar to become a registered press is quite a bit higher than I’ve assumed…
I guess I’ll just have to wait a time with patience…

Prop Card IMG_9520 (Gemeny).jpg
I am so confused…
I jumped through all the hoops…
Submitted my prop card as required.
Was told everything was fine; and eventually (some months later) showed up in the list of registered presses…
Today I was explaining this to a friend only to discover that my press name was no longer in the list…
Have I done something wrong, been adjudicated unworthy;
Or is this just an artifact of a reversion to a website back-up prior to the acceptance of my registration…
Respectfully

Hi Steve, I’m so sorry this happened. I’m looking into on our end. In the meantime, if you’d like to resubmit your registration request, I will approve it on our end immediately.
Steve, Amanda just brought this matter to my attention.
I’m sorry that we gave you the impression that you may have done something wrong. On the contrary: you’ve highlighted an issue that we’re glad to know about and will aim to resolve.
Briar Press is run by a small group of volunteers who try to keep this old platform running while we explore ways to renew it. We have your prop card in hand, and your press is now recorded in the International Register of Private Press Names. If you wish to add or change any information, you can do so directly, or let us know how we can help.
