In Gmail you can create a filter that tells server not to send to Spam emails containing defined word (like "stardock"). I guess there are similar options in other email services (a white list?).

I would bet it's either the day of or after. 

if in the orginal beta: I'd start looking sometime around 11 AM EST Monday for e-mails and keep looking through the day/week.  Those not in the beta will want to start looking on the 23rd (I think) at the same time for a e-mail.  This is my own opinion however and Stardock HAS been known to release patches and stuff on Thursdays so the e-mail may come on a Thursday

I wonder if the people who pre ordered the game from gamestop will be allowed in the first beta.

A nerd with a wicked sense of humor!

Memememememememe! Send me an email! Send it now! I want it! I need it! I can't play properly this week, but that is irrelevant!

(I pre-ordered WoM about the day I saw the pre-order option, patiently waited through the beta ( and played the beta... *shudders* THE COODIES! THE COODIES!)

As soon as I get one I'll post.

As the other poster said, I would recommend putting @stardock.com into your white list in your e-mail client.

That way you won't have to worry about that.

Grrr I need a time machine so I can jump 2 days into the future

I posted this in another forum but I'll post it here, too. I'm dying to play the game as much as anyone, so I e-mailed Stardock this morning and got a reply via e-mail shortly thereafter.  Here's a copy:
