If you're a Stellent customer, you've probably noticed that you no longer get those nice customer emails about ECM from Oracle... that's because Oracle -- wisely -- has a pretty strict anti-spam policy... so people who own one Oracle product aren't blasted with info and offers from other products.

So what should you do instead? Well, first of all you need to register for the quarterly content management newsletter. This isn't customer-only focused, but its got a lot of good stuff... and the archives are online.

In addition, Oracle is now is doing a quarterly customer webcast to keep folks up to date about the latest changes in the product line. The next one will be June 5, 2008 at 9:00 a.m Pacific Time. If you'd like to attend, you need to register with Intercall. Its for customers and partners only... so be sure to use your company email address, or you'll get booted!

Another option is to configure Metalink to send you ECM updates. Follow these steps:

1. Log in to Metalink.
2. Click the Headlines link in the upper left of the page.
3. Click the Edit Page button under Headlines on the right.
4. In the drop-down list, select Certify and Availability, and click Add New.
5. In the top right, select the Certify Settings button.
6. In the drop-down list under Product Alerts, select Oracle Universal Product Management, and click Add New.
7. Click the Overall Settings button.
8. At the bottom of the page, click the Automatically email My Headlines to me checkbox.
9. Click Store Settings.
10. Play the waiting game, or hungry hungry hippos until your emails arrive.

You can also subscribe to bug reports and knowledge base articles, if you'd really like to keep up-to-date...

Of course, to be fully up to date, you'll need to do all this, plus subscribe to email notifications from the Stellent Yahoo Group and the Oracle ECM Forum... but that's only for information hogs like me ;-)
