    1. Re: [AOL-RW] With holding letters/from Jeannie
    2. Jeannie- If your daughter received any noticed that her email couldn't be delivered it should be a bounce notice. Bounce notices generally give a REASON for the bounce and that is why we'd need to see the bounce to know the reason given for either your her ISP not sending the mail through to you on AOL or AOL refusing to accept it. You don't seem to be having any problem with mail to/from THIS list. I can't say about problems between Yahoo lists AOL although I subscribe to several "dog" lists on Yahoo and never have a problem receiving mail from those lists--some in plain text, some that have HTML and attachments--I get them all and timely. One or two of my Yahoo lists are moderated and that means no one gets the messages until the moderator approves them--so maybe this is what is happening? In that case they WOULD all arrive at once and not timely--after the moderator approves them. Joan In a message dated 7/27/2008 1:26:29 P.M.

You rescued me once in a similar situation some years ago. There seems to be more to this mail problem than just lists. I was unable to receive two test letters from my AOL sister who used a yahoo addy she had. I never recd them. My all time favorite list (BRICK WALL) is a yahoo list. Every day come rain or shine there are at least a dozen posts a day. A VERY active daily list. Nothing for some days. I have a lap top, and a computer in home office and went to AOL.com to see if more mail there. But all the same situation. Am subbed to about 20 or so RootsWeb lists and verified it yesterday AM. Will check the archives. About my daughter's mail. She sent one early yesterday AM to say on way to here from WA. Then she called me to say her mail program said AOL not accepting mail. I do not know if she in that program has a bounce notice. Because I was already having some sort of mail problem it was just one more. I never did receive that letter. She is AOL but uses a mail program because AOL is so slow loading in her area. It is IncrediMail the same program I posted on this list a warning about using it. It lost me all the letters in my main screen name. But she gets along just fine w/no problems. I will ask her about a bounce, but if she did get one probably deleted it right then. She very rarely keeps anything in her mail box. Will write to her but she has her 2 year old grandbaby on a visit until Tuesday. I try not to bother when this happens once a month. When I contacted AOL tech two days ago I expected to be told to re-install AOL. But I would resist that because is same on lap top as on my office computer. So it cannot be a corrupted AOL problem. He made a few adjs but still same as was. Never use the archives and cannot remember how to get to them. Jeannie :) **************Get fantasy football with free live scoring.
