MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Nov. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Goodmail Systems(TM), creators of CertifiedEmail -- a new class of e-mail to help shield consumers from spam, fraud and phishing, announced today that The New York Times Company is implementing the Goodmail CertifiedEmail service. The New York Times Company will utilize the service for users of its online properties including NYTimes.com, Boston.com and About.com. The Goodmail CertifiedEmail service identifies e-mail from accredited senders and assures delivery to the inboxes of AOL and Yahoo! customers where the e-mails will be labeled with a symbol indicating that they are safe to open.
Martin Nisenholtz, senior vice president of digital operations for The New York Times Company, said: "Our loyal online readers expect timely, secure e-mail alerts and newsletters from us. We are pleased to work with Goodmail in implementing its CertifiedEmail service to help us ensure that our readers receive timely and appropriate communications that are authentic and safe to open."
Every message sent through the Goodmail CertifiedEmail service is embedded with a cryptographically-secure token. These tokens must be detected by participating ISPs before they can be delivered to recipients' in-boxes identified with the CertifiedEmail symbol -- a mark that indicates the message is from a trusted sender and can be opened with confidence. Goodmail's CertifiedEmail service improves the consumer e-mail experience, addresses the needs of legitimate senders, and enables mailbox providers with a secure platform to offer premium delivery services to qualified businesses that rely on e-mail to reach their customers.
"We are creating a new class of e-mail so that recipients can be assured that they're receiving safe e-mails from legitimate senders," said Richard Gingras, chairman and CEO of Goodmail Systems. "We are pleased to be able to help protect the valuable brands and reputations of companies like The New York Times Company in the event that its likeness is copied for illegal uses such as phishing scams and identity theft."
Availability of the Goodmail CertifiedEmail service through AOL and Yahoo! is expected in the coming months. AOL and Yahoo! Mail combined represent approximately 50% of the U.S. consumer email audience.
