Would anyone be willing to share their wording on Email, Phone and Mail Retrictions on the General Tab?Our wording doesn't seem to be very effective and was wondering what others are doing out there.
Ours are
Do Not Mail
No Fundraising Mailing
Bad Address
No Marketing Mailing
No Trade
No Gala/Events Mailing
and
No Telefundraising Calls
Do Not Call
Bad Phone Number
No Marketing Calls
We'll probably be revising this now that our website has more functionality and we'll be getting more details on how our constituents want to be contacted.

With this sort of set up, what do you do if people don't want fundraising and don't want events mails, but are happy to receive marketing regarding performances? Does this ever happen?
Suzanne,
Obviously its not a perfect system but it mostly works.
People who are coded as "No Fundraising" do not get events mail but would get all other kinds of mail. In this situation Gala/Events mailing refers only to Development Special Events. "No Marketing Mail" assume that they are ok with receiving fundraising mail. If they don't want either then they would be "do not mail".
I know, clear as mud right?
