Late e-mail

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Beyond the Sidewalks : One Thread

What the hey? I, like a lot of you, receive responses to these threads in my e-mail. Normally, I can post and then click on "Get Message" and the message I just posted comes to me in my e-mail. Fast. Instant. Lately however, I don't seem to be getting the responses for a couple of days after they're posted. And then, not in the order that they were posted! Is anyone else having this problem? Why me? I have done nothing to the computer Gods. That I know of. Maybe they didn't like my "worm" joke?

Wildman, you and Renee are the only two that I know of that receive the messages here as email.

I come to the website to read the messages, click on New Answers to see what people have posted, and then read any new posts that have no replies yet. Of course, coming to the website means you have to enter the password to get in. I don't know how the emails work -- do they just show up, or do you have to enter a password to get those too?

Jack, I just sent you an email and it came back undeliverable. Maybe your email folks have a problem.

Namaste, Judy

Jack, looks like your email here on the forum is spelled differently, an "r" is missing, than the email address I have for you. I used the one on the forum to send the email that came back.

Isn't that wonderful? Just ask and you shall receive! I did and I did. Thanks Judy for making me look like a fool, publicly! Now, everyone on here knows that I can't spell my own address! I'll get no respect from now on. I did go in and change the address so that it's correct. I haven't changed it recently and don't know why this problem just started a few days ago but I'll see if this solves the problem.

Joy, the post come to you just like regular e-mail. No password or anything. You only get the new responses so you kinda have to keep up with what's going on and it doesn't hurt to stop by once in a while and check the whole thread. Thanks for the tip about the New Replies, because I didn't even know it was there. That makes checking in a lot easier.

Hahahaha, we all make spelling typos. Did you get my email, cause I got another mailer daemon, returned.

Namaste, Judy

Judy, I got your e-mail but I'm not sure I got all of it. It started off with the word "Not". Sandy was happy to hear that ya'll aren't sick. Oh, I was too! I'm so far behind on e-mails but I'll try to get back to you soon.

Excuse me but I get the responses to topics I start in my inbox as well and I noticed a slowness and mix up in the chronological order.
