Problem with spam blocking or with amazon

Today I received an email from my dad asking if I had received the gift certificate he had sent me from amazon. After looking through old emails I quickly determined I hadn't. I started thinking and realized that my spam blocking software probably kicked it out and didn't flag it for me to read.

Not a big deal. My dad resent the certificate then I found out why it was blocked. Amazon had obliterated the from address and had placed a cryptic subject in place that it was rightfully blocked by my spam blocker. Here is a plea to those companies that sell online gift certificates to let the original purchaser place their REAL email address as the from. If that was the case then this would never have been a problem.

The same plea goes out to all e-card providers out on the net.
