| When I send myself a copy of anything from the net (Steel Forum, for ex.), it goes to the "deleted" folder rather than to the "inbox". Can this be easily corrected? Thanks, Steve |

| What email program are you receiving the emails on that does this? |

Steve-- In OutLook Express, I believe there was an "In-Box Assistant" or some such thing you could access from the "Tools" menu. That enabled the user to specify what should happen to incoming messages. Other mail clients probably have similar "filters".
Might help for you to look and see what's currently set up. --Everett |

| Thanks, Jim and Everett. I have been using Outlook Express and did what Everett suggested by going into "tools", then to "message rules" and dinking around. I found out that I had put own email address on the "blocked senders list" so I removed my name from that. Now things are cool! Thanks a lot guys.

On a related topic, Lori used to get mail at lori@b0b.com. when i switched providers, I had all b0b.com email forwarded to my mailbox. I set up Outlook Express on my machine to automatically forward lori@b0b.com mail to Lori.
Some time later I got concerned that Lori wasn't answering my emails. I asked her about this or that several times, and she said "I didn't get that email". We finally discovered that she had added me to her "Blocked Senders" list when I automatically forwarded a piece of spam to her. We had a good laugh over that one.
