Tarma's tech support is great - fast, courteous, and technically competent. [Tom Z.]
If you require technical support, please send an email message to support@tarma.com. Your feedback is an important source for our product development, so feel free to get in touch.
Although we try to answer all queries within 24 hours of receipt, we cannot guarantee this. However, if you haven't heard back from us within 4 business days, please resubmit your query; it might have gone missing or eaten by our anti-spam filter.
Make sure that your From: and Reply-to: addresses are correct! Each month we receive several messages that have incorrect return addresses, which means that our replies will never reach you.
Also ensure that your mail server doesn't bounce or silently discards our replies. We don't send executable attachments and don't send out spam. If you want to filter spam, please base your filter on IP addresses, not on "from" addresses. "From" addresses are trivial to forge, so they don't really mean much. IP address filters are much more reliable.
Please note that to reduce the amount of spam that we receive, our mail server is configured to discard email messages from known spam sources.
If this happens with your email, you receive a bounce message saying 554 Service unavailable; Client host [IP address] blocked using blacklist-name; http-query.
Please consult the http-query to find out why your host was blacklisted.
If the blacklisted host is your ISP's mail server, then you should contact your ISP to have them remedy the situation.
