I got that email as well and I ignored it as it seems rather strange. I was hoping someone would post here about it :D

I got it too.  Figured Brad was switching mailing list providers due to the recent spam issues.  I'll wait to hear from him.

Maybe they were switching provider of the emails and the old list was imported to the new system, but it sent out a notification to everyone as if they subscribed again.

I didn't receive an email like that. Just thought I would mention it since everyone else that has replied seems to have received one.

THIS IS NOT SPAM - So no worries for clicking verify - and if you ignored it that is fine too, you will remain subscribed.

I can't say enough how sorry I am for this, it was a goof with the new Newsletter provider.

As soon as I get this set up properly, I will send an apology email with a chance to win free stuff.

The "Sorry for the Confusion" newsletter that went out a bit ago appeared in my junk (hotmail). Probably only because it was from a new provider so since I now marked it safe it will probably not go to junk next time.

This is disappointing to hear.  Mine did not go to spam this time on gmail so that was somewhat encouraging.

I would suggest that everyone add a rule to never send to spam emails from info@techkeys.us if you want to be sure to get them
