Hi Robbie, I must admit that I am a little puzzled by the content of recent mails from Tony and yourself to the list. Let me try and clear up my lack of understanding here. Are you not receiving messages from the list or is it that messages from the list are not coming directly into your Inbox?. If so then you appear to be receiving Tonys messages. If the list messages aren't coming into your inbox could it be that they are going into the junk mail box or if you have spamfighter or some other spam filtering software then perhaps the messages are running into same other box within your email program. Also sometimes people can accidently add names to the junk mail rules which you can access by going into your tools menu and checking out in there. Let me know what you think about this. Paul. -----Original Message----- From: vip_students-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:vip_students-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Robert Forde Sent: 28 April 2008 19:43 To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vip_students] Re: Not showing in in box Ok Tony I think resubscribing to the list again may be a worthwhile option 1st. Thanks again, You're suggestions were much appreciated.

Firstly can I say that I had a problem the weekend with my Office product giving me an error message! I don't know what might have caused the fault but a friend suggested that I do a repair and it sorted the prob for me! Now I wouldn't know the cause of your problem, but I wonder if you would consider unsubscribing from the list and resubscribing using the same email account or perhaps another! There is also the option of contacting tech support to see what they might have to say about the matter! You could ask your ISP too, but perhaps you could contact the moderator off list and request him to take up the matter with freelists on your behalf, should he consider that that be the way to go! Anyway if that's not passing the buck I don't know what is!! [smile] Tony. ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Forde <mailto:bobforde25@xxxxxxxxx> To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Sunday, April 27, 2008 8:29 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Not showing in in box Hi Tony, No worries sure I'm so busy myself these days that I get little time to look at my own non work related e mails , I hope you enjoyed your holidays. This list is the only list I'm involved with so I dont know if my e mail would be effected on another list. I wouldn't think so if I am not the only individual having this problem. I haven't got a notion why this is happening. Did Brian have any thoughts of why his e mails are not appearing?

Now, your issue with regard to you not receiving your own emails to this list in to your inbox is baffling indeed! I thought that it might be only one or two not appearing, as I'm sure that we all have had that on this or other lists and in general!! Could you please let us know if you have the same problem on other listts that you may be subscribed to? Thanks, Tony. ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Forde <mailto:bobforde25@xxxxxxxxx> To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, April 19, 2008 3:29 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Not showing in in box Hi Tony, What do you mean when you say it could be 6 months+? I can still access the list no problem but it's just that my mails are not appearing on the list.

"Loud & Clear"!! There were some issues with another list, so no worries! Interesting that your messages didn't appear, & one or two of mine to another list were duplicated to it! The mind boggles!! What I would say in the instances, don't worry about it & "keep on trucking"! Enjoy your computing!

I don't know what the reason is but hopefully this will appear on the list. Please let me know if you get this ----- Original Message ----- From: Tony Sweeney <mailto:tonysweeney1@xxxxxxxxxx> To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, April 12, 2008 7:42 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Not showing in in box Hi Robert, Let us know if you receive this! There is mention of similar on one or two lists of Freelists which I am on too! I suspect that it is probably a problem with Freelists! Trust that the issue will be shortlived! Sometimes for no unknown reason emails can "get lost in sibr space." A tip that if you are going to be sending important emails to other than email lists that if you don't get a response promptly, follow it up! Trust you are all enjoying the "spring like weather" we are having this evening, certainly in the Capital! It is "peeing" cats and dogs and with sometimes thunder! Cheers, Tony.----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Forde <mailto:bobforde25@xxxxxxxxx> To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, April 12, 2008 7:04 PM Subject: [vip_students] Not showing in in box Hi all, I seem to have the same dilemma as Brian.
