5/1/2010:
The most frequent reason for not receiving a reply via e-mail are spam filters (esp. at @yahoo.com, @hotmail, @comcast, and @gmail.com e-mail addresses). In most cases we do receive your complaints and attempt to resend the instructions to all e-mail addresses on the file. If this fails, we attempt a contact by phone (if you listed one in your order). If you do not get an answer in 2-3 attempts, you could best provide an alternative e-mail address.


I bought SuperMemo 2006 (in 2009), but never received the password to unlock it. My order number was 20421. I have used up the 100 credits and am now locked out of my collection! Please respond ASAP (kai1xin1(AT)hotmail(DOT)com), thank you! - Chen Zhao, 5/1/2010
'''Remember to add shop[year]@ and help[year]@ addresses to your spam whitelist''' (e.g. shop2017(AT)supermemo(DOT)org)

You can also edit this page in cases when messages sent to @supermemo.org bounce back for some reason.


Your instructions will be resent asap (possibly only after the weekend). If you do not receive any mail by late Monday, you can be sure that these are hotmail spam filters. Please see your junk mail or write to shop(AT)supermemo(DOT)com with an alternative e-mail address. In a separate e-mail, you will also receive an apology for this situation. It often happens that only the commercial mail gets filtered, while the apology passes through. Thank you.
Remember also that each year addresses change. For example, shop2017(@)supermemo(.)org will change to shop2018@ on Jan 1, 2018. The old addresses are discarded and misdirected mail will not be retrieved.

Problem

The most frequent reason for not receiving a reply via e-mail are spam filters (esp. at @yahoo.com, @hotmail, @comcast, and @gmail.com e-mail addresses). In most cases we do receive your complaints and attempt to resend the instructions to all e-mail addresses on the file. If this fails, we attempt a contact by phone (if you listed one in your order). If you do not get an answer in 2-3 attempts, you could best provide an alternative e-mail address.

Remember to add shop[year]@ and help[year]@ addresses to your spam whitelist (e.g. shop2017(AT)supermemo(DOT)org)

You can also edit this page in cases when messages sent to @supermemo.org bounce back for some reason.

Remember also that each year addresses change. For example, shop2017(@)supermemo(.)org will change to shop2018@ on Jan 1, 2018. The old addresses are discarded and misdirected mail will not be retrieved.

Please note also that questions that have already been answered in the documentation receive lower priority and may take longer to process.
