OT: Bouncing Around

[Guest guest]

Crap .. tell me a server that doesn't have lots of spam. I think they are

just flat out discriminating because Superonline is from a Moslem country.

;-)

 

====Nah...I get that too, and I'm in Podunk, Kentucky.

Here is a question for all you net-savvy folk:

 

I am used to getting tons of canned meat'

especially to the domain name email.

ien is on my business

cards or I would have ditched it years

ago.

 

But recently I started getting emails

that show my regular address has been

used to send other people's Sp@m.

 

This really upsets me.

Is there anything one can do about it?

Hey Jaime .. other good folks ..

 

I get daily orders from all the servers .. the WORST for bouncing back

to me are:

 

1. Aol

2.

3. Roadrunner .. plus it not only bounces but often refuses to allow my

server to send mail .. their security section claimed once that there

were many spam messages from Superonline (my server). Crap .. tell me a

server that doesn't have lots of spam. I think they are just flat out

discriminating because Superonline is from a Moslem country. ;-)

 

Many is the time a person will order .. I confirm and send it back .. it

bounces and the server says no such number .. I send it to my folks in

MD and they forward it .. and its received.

 

Comcast is one of the best for NOT bouncing my mail.

 

ALL servers suck when it comes to determining what is spam .. and one of

the worst is the one my company in MD uses .. Qcol.net. That one thinks

its smart enough to " grade " email and determine what is spam. When one

is getting orders from folks in 88 countries and all of them are not

using English keyboards .. its impossible to determine what is spam. A

customer types in their name followed by <whatever and it

comes out as $ & @^% & # <whatever

 

The solution to this problem is (to me) Mail Washer .. its freeware and

allows a human being to make decisions rather than a system.

 

I like my Superonline server .. its fast, inexpensive and dependable.

Just what one should expect from a servers in Emerging Market Countries

if they are working harder to be #1. I'll see if this follows true soon

because 2 weeks from now I will be using a Russian server ( yandex.ru )

for 2 months. ;-)

 

Y'all keep bouncing .. errr .. smiling. ;-)
