When are you sending yourself the message...if you send it AFTER you get
the download, it won't work as well.
I do this all the time. The trick is to send the message to yourself
WHEN YOU "GET NEW MAIL" IN JUNO. i.e., your outgoing message goes as you
empty your inbox on the Juno server, and (hopefully) will go in before
anything new gets there.
The first time you do this, you will download messages that do not have
your "safe" message included. The next time you download (AND send a
safe message at the same time!), you will get your safe message...and
mine always come in first, once the routine is selected.
To make it easy, I set up my own Email address in my address book with a
two-letter "alias" (e.g., "xx" for your initials.) Then all I have to do
is type the alias in the "Send To" Box and it's ready to go.
I usually put the "safe" message in my outbox before I exit Juno, so it's
ready to go in case I forget the next time I go to download mail...just
be sure you click on the button to send AND receive mail.
