OH my - this is what came to my inbox today -
I registered a domain for my client, using domain privacy - and it seems that out of the blue, they have somehow found out that this site is using DNN and sent this email through to my client.. coming to me instead.
Talk about cutting someone's lunch DNN.
How does DNN know that this site is using DNN unless there is some call home feature??? Is there? Can someone please advise..
I clicked the unsubscribe link which took me to 'manage my subscriptions'
NOT COOL.. I'm gobsmacked that you're now poaching my clients. Why? Why do this? Do you really want to erode the confidence further? You're pitching EVOQ to my MY CLIENTS.. ffs.
Can someone please explain what CALL TO HOME stuff you've got in the build. Can this be turned off? Honestly I feel sick now thinking that you're going to be going out to go and poach my clients now.
Anyone else get this?

Hello Domain Privacy
With DNN Platform (formerly known as “DotNetNuke Community Edition”), you can build a rich and engaging website for your organization. As your organization grows, however, so does your site traffic. And that means you may face reports of slow page loads, downtime and security concerns. In addition, you want to support mobile visitors and be able to manage the multiple contributors of your site content.
But where do you start? Check out our white paper to learn how Evoq Content (from DNN) can address these considerations (and more).
Best,
DNN Corp.
I'm afraid you're once again jumping to incorrect conclusions - we do not silently slurp up users contact details. The only time an email get's transmitted from your install to us is when the host fills in the newsletter signup (i.e. on the screen that appears when you log in), this is clearly what happened (alternatively your client has registered with dnnsoftware or purchased something on the store, in which case they've also provided us with their email)
All of this is easy to verify as the code is opensource so you can check what happens and when. In future I'd recommend doing this, or asking a question rather than jumping to conclusions
