samboy Posted August 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Microsoft, g-mail. Have tried sending one to myself. A pal has tried sending me a few but they get returned. I'm not too clever with technical stuff. Iv'e tried google but it might as well be in Japanese. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamingdead Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 There should be an explanation in the header of the returned email your mate sent you as to why the delivery failed. Could your Gmail mailbox be full? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mel b3 Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 emails are funny things, both the good lady and myself often don't receive emails that have been sent to us , or from us . her good self has done a bit of digging , but as yet has never managed to find a reason for it.

johnphilip Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Do you have to sign in and password for your emails . Or does it open automatically . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samboy Posted August 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Opens automatically . Tried a few thing but give up now. Will get my pal to have a look at it. He's a bit handy with this sort of thing. If he sorts it out i will come back on here and let you know what the problem was. Might help others.

johnphilip Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 You may have been hacked , you need to look into your setting for your email . It happend to me . I am with Bt . They got into my ebay account and stuck about 200 items up for sale in my name . . Took Bt 2 weeks to sort it . They had put a thing i my emial account . It was redirecting my emails to them . If this is so i am sure your pal will find it . Good luck . I so wanted to hurt the person so bad if i could have found them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samboy Posted August 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Hi gang. Basically my laptop was full of trash. Although i deleted 7000 e mails the trash bin was full up and i also got rid of a lot of junk that was just taking up space. I've had my laptop for about 8 or nine years so perhaps its about time for a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
