Good morning peevers.

Great news. After yesterday's peeve I got to cut the grass yesterday! The sun made a brief appearance and it was lovely to pootle about in the garden.

Not so good was that I hadn't heard from a company, though I had sent them an email and had had an automated reply. I rang them up but it appears that the email itself was not with them.

One thing also about emails is how the address has to be 100% accurate, unlike the snail mail which if more or less okay tends to get there.

That leads me onto the POTD which is;

Missing emails.

I wish some of mine were missing. Like the DM's here on CD they just keep piling up!


Good Morning or is it afternoon Jezer?

I think i'd like some of mine to go missing...

1. I'm quite happy (and so seems Mrs Baldrick) with the size of some parts of me.
2. I don't wish to correspond with any Nigerian Generals or have their money in my bank.
3. Also Canadian pharmaceutical companies sell nothing i need, well not yet anyway.

I'm sure the ones i send them telling them to stop e.mailing me go astray..

My ISP has a pretty good spam filtration service so I am very happy that those emails are "missing". I wish Yahoo could do as well. Every day I have to go into the Spam box and delete at least 50 emails that are cluttering it up.

This has happened to me enough times that if I don't hear back from someone who is normally very responsive, I follow up with them. Considering emails are flying through cyberspace, not too surprising that sometimes they take a wrong turn

Luckily I don't conduct a lot of business via e-mail, so I've been pretty lucky in that respect!

Here's one that drives me crazy. I have over 7,000 messages in my business email, and once in a rare while I'll see I have a new message, but I can't see it.

I'll start scrolling, scrolling, scrolling, still can't find the new message. I'll have to scroll through a few years worth of messages till it shows up.
Odd thing, the subject is about something current, but the date on it is old. I noticed that the last two like that were sent from mobile devices.
