Bouncing Problems
Hello Gang, I am a member of (3) Wanderlodge groups, and have had a
bouncing problem on and off for months now, as I was receiving emails from all. I have just stopped individual emails from one group, as this problem doesn't want to go away. I have spoke to Ernie about this a month or so ago, and now do think that it is a problem with my isp, (peoplepc.com), as a message posted showed me as "being over quota". Are there any others on this forum having this same problem? Have any of you used ( netzero ), ( copper.net ), or ( toast.net ) ? I have been thinking of switching to one of these isp's, or will gladly consider other suggestions from members of this group. Having this problem go away will greatly enhance my Wanderlodge experience. Thanks, George Burke 1977 FC 31 Charlotte |

Here's the big question: Why on earth would you consider switching ISPs when the
problem is an e-mail problem? From where I sit, the e-mail provided by an ISP is the very LAST one you should consider using. Been a topic heavy on my discussions elsewhere this week as hughes.net suffered a massive e-mail meltdown (my account sends a lot of automated e-mails to Hughes users, and I've been dealing with all the bounces). E-mail accounts should be independent, and preferably portable. Best is to get your own domain name, but many are reluctant to do that, so alternatives like Google's GMail (best in my opinion) or Yahoo mail are likely the best way to go. Choose ISPs for their ability to provide you with a connection. Choose e-mail providers for their quality, performance, and capacity. There are NO ISPs that have e-mail systems as robust as Google's.

George, I had peoplepc for a while. i liked the outlook express for mail
delivery, but with this slow dial up- I could not down load the mail in a resonable amount of time. I went back to AOL and complained to them that their monthly rate was too high- they lowered it to 10 bucks a month.

Do like I did, get an email account with Yahoo Mail. You can archive your
important emails there and it can be accessed from anywhere in the world. You can keep your PeoplePC account too. Just don't use the people pc email. I have DSL access here at home through AT&T although it is called sbcglobal.net. That was previous to AT&T merging with Southwestern Bell. I used to have problems during computer crashes when I used Outlook Express or Outlook. I would lose all my important emails that had not been archived since the last archive process. Now I don't lose them. They are always there at Yahoo Mail. Regards, Don Bradner Here's the big question: Why on earth would you consider switching ISPs when the problem is an e-mail problem?

George,
Open a GMail account. http://www.gmail.com. Totally free and you'll (almost) never have problems. As a bonus, you can switch ISPs anytime and never have to change your email address again - it will always be your_username@.... I highly recommend it. By the way, "over quota" means that peoplepc has decided you have too many emails in your inbox. They've set a limit for how many messages you can have, and you've hit it. GMail's limit is huge and it will be virtually impossible for you to hit it. -Ryan On 7/10/07, George Burke > > Hello Gang, I am a member of (3) Wanderlodge groups, and have had a > bouncing problem on and off for months now, as I was receiving emails > from all.

So far as I know, GMail stopped requiring invitations some time ago. Simply go
to http://mail.google.com/ and sign up.
