So I'm a premium member of V123 and have my email on file in my profile, but I don't get any lead mail. I've been auditioning for the leads listed on the website, but I'm afraid I might be missing a reply. Is there some way to enable the leads and communications to be sent to my email addy?

Make sure you have the correct box checked in your V123 preferences - which you probably do - in which case your ISP may be blocking the email as spam. I had to "white list" them through my ISP in order to let them through. Either V123 - or someone with a similar url is on a lot of black lists.

not seeing such a checkbox. Can you be more specific? My ISP is gmail, so I've looked in the spam folder. Nothing there.

actually, V123 is on a lot of black lists. You might not be able to see it if the SMTP router has it automatically flagged.

If you white list them, you should be good. Should that fail, contact your ISP admin and have them do it for you.

using Gmail, so that shouldn't be the issue.

Lesson #1 with V123... Auditioning for a lead listed at the V123 website does not guarantee a response from the client. The only person who will get a reply is the one that the client chooses. It is much easier for a client to reply to the "winner" with a congratulations... than to reply to the other 256 VO artists that also ran with a, "Better luck next time."

Right, but I'm not even get the initial leads sent to my email. I have to see them on the website. So if by some miracle a client is trying to reach me, then I'm not getting it if it's sent through the V123 system.

Contact them directly and they'll eventually help you. I've been getting 2 to 12 leads a day from them with an average of say, 7, so you should be seeing emails.

Yeah, I've got a mail in to them. We'll see what they say.
