99.99% chance it is a spam / phishing email.

Don't click on any links within the email!!!

This is a standard technique of online fraudsters:

They frighten you into thinking you have committed to spend some money, or have already paid

You then click a link in the email - WHICH LOOKS LIKE THE WEBSITE IT CLAIMS YOU HAVE ORDERED FROM!

This is actually a fake link and you then type in your login details, effectively giving them directly to the fraudsters

You then find that the actual ***** will follow very soon afterwards...

If the suspect email gives details of how you are supposed to have placed the order, then go direct to that online site and check from there (iTunes, eBay, Amazon, etc.)

Check websites like ask Leo dot com for more advice about staying safe online

Hello there,

Unfortunately, Fixya does not provide crack keys as it is illegal. Using pirated softwares also takes away from you the privilege of having a regular update for security holes and bug fixes for the operating system. Please take not also that by using illegal softwares, it also punishable by law.

To obtain one, you need to purchase a valid license key.

Goodluck!

How to get yahoo to allow email from SWREG or REGNOW. I placed an order with a Chinese software but have not received registration key yet. Their FAQ says Please make sure your MTA permits the email from...

I don't think they are blocking any messages from SWREG or REGNOW. MTA is known as Message Transfer Agent. MHS (Internet Message Handling Services) uses Agents such as MTA which is a Process or a Software Agent implemented to Transfer mails between two Machines. Its a Single Hop Transaction. The Protocol used is SMTP. MTS will receive mails from Mail Submission Agent (MSA), or a Mail User Agent (MUA). If you use any software to receive mails such as mail clients they would use POP3 or IMAP Protocols. As an example "The Exchange Server". Since you are using a Web Interface, such MUAs are not required. Yahoo usually allows any source and the clients have to send mails properly in order to receive at the other side. Its better to check your SPAM MAIL box. There is no block or restriction. If you didn't receive their mail please contact them and let them know.
Feel free to contact if you are facing difficulties. And if the solution helps you to solve the issue, please rate the answer as well.
Thanks for contacting Fixya!

This isn't really a problem that can be fixed here on Fixya rather than advise you as a buyer. You'd have to contact the people/company you have purchased the filters from and take it up with them regarding the postage. Hope you get a decent reply.
