An odd thing happened to me late last night. I got 15 "full mailbox" notices from the Admin@att.net , my ISP. This morning my mailbox was working normally as usual. I'm sure it wasn't a "good night's rest" that solved the problem. :):):). Does anyone know what happened and what I should do if it happens again?? Maureen PS to Ken: Thanks for not unsubbing me....most of my "bounces" were messages from this list.

This happens to me once in awhile (cox.net) also. Most of the time the messages are really SPAM, if you take the time to fully read them. They are actually addressed to someone else and sent to you as I'm sure you've noticed SPAM often is. :) I did have one instance where I had a bunch of messages with attachments that I had sent out that bounced. This cause my web based email account with them to fill up. I had to go to the web page and delete the messages that bounced. I don't know if your ISP offers this feature or not. In any regard, the ISP resets your mail account every 24 hours (or at least they should). That is why the problem seems to have cleared up itself. I wouldn't really worry about it unless it starts happening on a regular basis. If this is the case, then contact your ISP for directions. Hope this helps? Art
