Why does SourceMagnet send emails?

Security:

You will be asked to verify your email address for security purposes when creating an account. This ensures that no one else can sign up on your behalf. The email is sent from invitation@sourcemagnet.com

Keeping You Updated:

Emails are sent from the platform to inform you and your team members about any live requests you are running or if you've been invited as a Supplier.

When Emails are Not Received

Incorrect Address:

If the email address is misspelled or incorrect, emails will not reach you. To resolve this:

  • Check that the email address you used to sign up matches exactly.

  • If there's an error, contact your system administrator or the person who invited you to the sourcing event.

Spam Filters:

Some email providers may flag our emails, directing them to secondary folders like 'Spam' or 'Junk.' To resolve:

  • Open the folder where "Spam" or "Junk" emails end up

  • Check for emails from SourceMagnet and mark them as 'not spam' or 'trusted.'

Blocked Messages:

Sometimes, emails may be blocked. To resolve:

  • Add SourceMagnet to your provider's "allow list," "whitelist," or similar.
