 The business world lives on email. Ring-U sends out automated emails about system status, invoices and support tickets, more importantly to you, your Hello Hub also sends out **voicemails**, **faxes** and sometimes **SMS/Text**  via email.

 Some of the email service providers don't give a reason. They just block things. It's a way of reducing spam and email from people that don't pay them money to get on their good list.
