Hi Irene I would be inclined to check the address very carefully to make sure you've not left out a dot or a dash. It is possible to send emails to yourself from the same PC.

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! Irene.
