We think you&#8217;re going to love it. In speaking with customers about the upgrade, however, we&#8217;ve heard some common questions and want to address them here.<!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>&#8220;Do I need a subscription now? I thought you said it was free?!&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>No, you do not need a subscription and yes, it really is a free upgrade! Along with Direct Mail 3, we have introduced an optional monthly subscription plan to our e3 Delivery Service. This a great option for frequent senders, as it gives you access to our speedy, reliable email delivery service at a low monthly rate. It is, however, completely optional. <strong>You do not need to pay anything additional to use Direct Mail 3<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>&#8220;Why do I need an account now?&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>Previously, you used a registration code to unlock Direct Mail&#8217;s features. Now, instead of using a registration code, Direct Mail will automatically sign you in to your e3 Delivery Service account in the background when you open the application (even if you don&#8217;t use e3 Delivery Service, you&#8217;ll still have an account). Using an account instead of a registration code is great for several reasons, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Easier access to purchasing email credits or switching plans<\/li>\n<li>Easier to share your account across multiple machines<\/li>\n<li>Easier to update your email address with us so we can notify you of issues with your emails (for example, spam complaints)<\/li>\n<li>Easier for us to prevent spammers from hurting the quality of service for legitimate users<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>&#8220;How do I sign in to my e3 Delivery Service account?&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>The first time you use Direct Mail 3, we will try and sign you in automatically (by referencing your old Direct Mail 2 registration code). If it doesn&#8217;t work for some reason, then you can sign in using the following credentials:<\/p>\n<pre>Email: (the email address you used when purchasing Direct Mail 2)\r\nPassword: (the registration code you received after purchasing Direct Mail 2)<\/pre>\n<p>You can find both of these pieces of information in the email receipt that was sent to you (from Kagi).<\/p>\n<h3>&#8220;Can I open my Direct Mail 2 projects in Direct Mail 3?&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>Yes! Direct Mail 3 can open and use any project from Direct Mail 2.<\/p>\n<h3>&#8220;Anything else I should know?&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>Nope! We think you&#8217;re going to really love the new features and enhancements in Direct Mail 3.
