Hi Eleanor, Paul and Edel, Yes, I received your E-mails fine. My own E-mail address has been in my address book for ever but I will delete it and re-enter just to see what happens. I will also send a test E-mail to the list to see if I get it back. Cheers, Irene. ----- Original Message ----- From: Eleanor Burke To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, July 27, 2009 8:34 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: E-mails to myself Irene You cannot send yourself a test e-mail because it would be coming from you to yhou. Now maybe I am wrong and will then stand corrected. Your e-mail certainly reached the list as I am responding to it. Now if yhou have more than one e-mail address, you could try sending from one of your e-mail addresses to another one. I have 2 e-mail addresses eleanorburke1@xxxxxxxxxx and eleanorburke@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx so I can send tests between these e-mail addresses. What exactly is your problem and maybe we can help out in that way? Like I say your e-mail to the list arrived OK. You could always send a Test e-mail to the list either and say something like Test Please Ignore and if it comes to you then you know things are working. Sorry if I am being repetative here.

I sent myself a couple of test E-mails in Outlook Express and didn't receive them back. Then I got rid of a load of rubbish from the beginning of an item sent by a friend, copied the body of the item to the clipboard and then sent it to myself so I could forward it on to friends. Again it has not come back to me. I hope I have explained this okay but if not I will try again if it sounds double Dutch!
