Connections to Come from listserv@civicplus Email Beginning in AprilIn early 2024, Google and Yahoo implemented a new email delivery rule to primarily target senders of bulk emails. CivicPlus, the City of Hopkins website provider, falls within the scope of this rule. Due to this change and the authentication requirements that come along with this, the City will no longer be able to send Connections through the custom "City of Hopkins" email address. Beginning in April, Connections will be sent from the listserv@civicplus.com email address. If you have any questions about this change, contact Communications Manager Kelsey Baumann.
