ncwoodworker@yahoogroups.com testing

[SteveColes]

Right now I know that if I go to the yahoogroups and post a message directly on the website, it works. But if I sent a message to ncwoodworker@yahoogroups.com it doesn't get posted??

Could one or more of you send a message to that email address with the time you sent it in the body of the message, it will help me figure out what wrong.

Thanks,

BTW, what do you think of new signature line:lol:

I love your new signature line, very creative, you should have been a poet.

Done...

I am not exactly sure how those groups work, but when I make a post it doesn't show up on the site, but I guess it does get e-mailed out to all members. I think in order for this system to work it needs to show up at the yahoo group site. So if the system goes down you can go there to see who also has realized the problem and who is calling it in.

My e-mail came back as undeliverable.

Cathy, you can only send messages to the yahoo group from an e-mail account that is in your yahoo user account. The same thing happened to me. I registered at the yahoo site from my ncww'er e-mail, but sent the first e-mail from Steve's request out of my work e-mail acct. (it's the default on my work 'puter).

Oh yeah, I got bounced back as well. i'll register and send again this afternoon when I get home. Our firewall here blocks access to yahoogroups.

Steve -- I sent an e-mail to the yahoogroup and it took 70 minutes to bounce back to me -- sent at 2:28 and returned at 3:38. I keep my e-mail minimized on my Start bar and it dings me. But, and this is important, I had my Outlook Express set to check for unread mail every 30 minutes. I just changed it to 10 minutes and will try again.

Second test message was e-mailed at 3:54 and came back to me at 4:17. That was after I reset the Mail Read option to every 10 minutes.

I forgot to repost - I signed in on Yahoo and re-sent the message. I don't remember what time - but it was in the subject line and body.

This attempt bounced back at 3:48AM as undeliverable. I will follow the recommendations of going to the yahoo group and shoot it again.

I've added messages from this yahoo group to my safe list and am getting e-mail alerts when new posts are added within several minutes of their posting.

I got mshel's and carheirloom's (who is that?) notices yesterday and probably others which hit my junk folder. I have been clearing out that folder without paying much attention to what's in it, so I might have had confirmations yesterday and not realized it.
