la-vie-en-rose Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I'm with Club internet/Neuf/SFR/whoever next.Some while ago they joined up with AOL, and I have a suspicion that my e-mail is being dumped by the spam filter - either that or I'm a sad and lonely person with whom no-one corresponds and to whom no-one replies.So, does any-one know how I can find out? I am an ignoramus as far as AOL is concerned, and although I have tried repeatedly to find out how to alter settings, changing them just on the Club-Internet e-mail site appears to make no difference.Any help gratefully received - assuming you can contact me...

suein56 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 [quote user="la-vie-en-rose"]Any help gratefully received - assuming you can contact me... [/quote] The best idea might be to sign up for a non-isp email address such as gmail/yahoo/voilà/whatever - which you then configure to arrive at your computer to Outlook Express or whatever on-computer programme you use for email. This (usually) avoids spam problems. But nothing is perfect.Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mary Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hi, I have the same problem sending all mail to AOL from my Orange account here in France. I did fill in an online form with AOL asking for all my detials and asking me to do verious tests in MS DOS, but would you believe it, when I sent it over, it bounced back!!!.I now use an Google mail account to e mail my Family who have AOL, as fed up with mail I send bouncing back. It is definatly something to do with AOL, and which IP addresses they dont like. In your case it's your friends addresses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tel Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hi,As you received my email I guess that Club Internet are blocking emails from problem (in their view) servers. See this link http://www.completefrance.com/cs/forums/990030/ShowPost.aspxIf an ISP gets a lot of Spam from a hijacked email address it blocks them and deletes their mail as a matter of course.

AnOther Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 And it would not be the first time that AOL have found themselves on the black list either !When there are many free alternatives I cannot understand why people still handcuff themselves to an ISP's email [:'(] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
