Bounce

I've had several emails recently from people telling me that emails to my address have bounced. No-one has had the sense to keep the error message, so I don't know exactly what the problem is. They have all stored the address in their address books, so it's not a typing error.

Ant-virus here is McAfee, SpamPal just collects spam into a folder for me to browse through later and no other privacy / antivirus software is in use. The emails are collected 2 -3 times daily, so the box should not be full.

Any ideas ?

Re: Bounce

Have you got a free webmail account like yahoo or hotmail you could use and try and send an email to your main address?

Re: Bounce

I have a work email address as well as a couple of others that I don't use. BUT most of the mail gets through, I collect about 40 - 50 per day, but I don't want to keep sending emails to track the 1 in 100 or so that bounces.....

Re: Bounce

Who supplies the email address that you are having problems with. If you PM me your email I can do a trace on the email address to see where emails go

What I meant was just send one and see what error message you get.
