Emailing From This Site

15 years ago

I have a Dell 1550 Laptop running Windows 7 and Microsoft Outlook 2010.

I just noticed that for some reason I can't email a link to myself from the computer forum. I have sent 3 links over the last 10 minutes and none have shown up. The strange part is I just decided to try to email "the page" instead of a link, and it came right through----no trouble. I have also received replies to another problem I was having with no trouble. Any ideas what might be wrong.

Thanks as always for your help,

BarbB

Up in the right? Where it says email this post, you are seeing a problem? I use this to send myself something I want to keep. Last week one took about five days to show up in my email in-box.

I just sent a link to this thread, to myself using File/ Send a link.

By the time I went to my TBird it was there.

What am seeing on my mulch??

probably a harmless mold that is eating your mulch and supplying its wastes as nutrients to your bananas. watch your plants to see if it spreads to living tissues. otherwise, don't worry about it. if it does spread get some fungicide. But don't use that unless you see damage.

Not sure what you asked but if I check the box,I recieve replys. If i don't check the box,no replys come to my email. If you get anything else,some ^%!@#* member must have sold your address to spammers. How do you know the emails are origionating from GW? GW evidentialy plants a lot of cookies (which I object to) when the site is browsed.

there were a couple things she told me that I know weren't true, and there was also some pressure to use her lender and her inspector, but maybe they all do that . If you caught her in a lie, then I would move on. You have to trust the person who is handling one of the biggest financial transactions of your life. I am one of those "theys", but I never pressure anyone to do anything. To pressure you to use her recommended lender and home inspector before you have even devloped any kind of trusting relationship with her is a sure way to push you away. I ask people if they would like recommendations of local attys, home inspectors or lenders. Most of the time, if we have developed a nice relationship, they want the recommendations. Sometimes, people are just more comfortable to use their own people, thats fine too.

In ancient history the e-mail originating from GW was pretty reliable. Ever since iVillage took over the e-mails have the reputation of being delayed, and sometimes even to have been reported as not arriving. The only thought I have is the focus is on the web servers and not on the e-mail servers.

Thanks all for your replies. Not sure I understand all, but the bottom line for me is when I send an email from this forum to myself using the "Send link by Email" prompt in IE 7 under "File", "Send", I'm not getting it. If I use "send PAGE by Email" I do get it. Very weird. Thanks again for your help.

Have you tried the 'email this post' under clippings at the right?

Hi Bob,

Yikes! No, I sure haven't, and in fact have never seen it. I usually just go to "file", "send" etc, etc.
Don't know why that should work any better, but obviously it does or you wouldn't recommend it. I'll try it right after this.

Thanks so much,

BarbB
