Networking To A HF

Do some firms block outside emails? I’ve emailed a couple people at a firm and none have responded. I know a friend of mine said I emailed him at work one time (he’s at a bank) and it was filtered into junk so he never received it. Does this happen s too?

I wouldn't be surprised, particularly if you're using a personal email service. SEC focusing more on cybersecurity and data breaches the past few years so I get the sense that more firms are buying email security software which can be pretty strict on filtering domains that aren't approved organizations
