Truemark Icon Helps Consumers Find and Trust Email Messages SANTA CLARA, Calif., — March 3, 2008 — ICONIX, Inc., the leading provider of visual email identification solutions, today announced that Gold Lasso, Inc. (www.goldlasso.com), a leading provider of on-demand email marketing software, is making the Iconix® Truemark® service available to its customers. Legitimate email messages from Gold Lasso customers who utilize the Truemark service will be marked with an icon, which includes the company's logo, in the recipient's inbox. This helps recipients instantly identify messages they care about and avoid spam and phishing attacks. "In our constant effort to ensure email delivery and safety, and assist our clients in their goals for growth, Gold Lasso is proud to announce that it is one of the first ESPs to offer the Iconix Truemark service," said Elie Ashery, President and CEO of Gold Lasso. "Iconix is a great choice for email marketers who want their messages to be seen and trusted, and is extremely simple to set up and use, contrary to other services in the market. The service will be available to all of our clients immediately." The Iconix Truemark solution uses industry standard email authentication technologies such as Sender ID, Domain Keys, and DKIM to verify the authenticity of the message. It then takes the process a step further by checking the identification of the email sender against a list of registered senders with ICONIX, Inc. Once an email has passed Authentication and Identification steps, a Truemark icon is displayed in the "from" column of the recipient's inbox. The Truemark service simultaneously protects and promotes the sender's brand. Recipients can easily find and trust the messages they care about, which gives them the confidence to open and act upon legitimate messages, thereby improving the communication between sender and recipient while reducing the risk of email fraud. "Gold Lasso clients are now able to benefit from the increased visibility and trust provided by the Truemark service," said Jeff Wilbur, Vice-President of Marketing, ICONIX.
