A client recently went to a meeting where he assumed an email he sent had arrived at his client's inbox.  When he learned it did not, he became alarmed and called us.

We offer best in class email solutions for you.  It’s simply the nature of email now (versus 5 years ago) that with so much spam and in turn spam software email is not as reliable as it once was.  Almost 90% of email out there is spam!
