An important notice for customers purchasing licenses for our applications from MyCommerce Digital River:

In October / November 2018, one of the email relay servers of Digital River has become the victim of a blacklist attack. This means that some Internet providers may not be accepting email messages from the Digital River network under the false assumption it is a source of SPAM (unsolicited commercial email). Depending on your provider, messages from Digital River are blocked and may not reach you. This includes license order confirmations that contain additional backup copies of both the invoice and the registration data.

Digital River is trying to resolve this issue as fast as possible.

Ein wichtiger Hinweis für Kunden, die Lizenzen für unsere Programme von MyCommerce Digital River kaufen:

Im Oktober / November 2018 ist einer der E-Mail-Relay-Server von Digital River Opfer eines Blacklist-Angriffs geworden. Das heißt, dass einige Internet-Provider möglicherweise keine E-Mail-Sendungen aus dem Netz von Digital River annehmen, da sie fälschlicherweise annehmen, es handle sich um eine SPAM-Quelle (unerwünschte Werbe-Mail).

Dies schließt Bestellbestätigungen mit ein, die zusätzliche Sicherheitskopien sowohl Ihrer Rechnung als auch der Registrierungsdaten enthalten.
