[Ql-Users] attachments

2014-04-20 Thread Dilwyn Jones
As Marcel (and others) found out to his cost, emails to me with attachments 
don’t get through to me on the email address I use for this list, even when 
flagged as safe senders in Windows Dead Mail.

Worse, since the emails to my own website domain are forwarded via the same 
ISP, those are being blocked too.

If you need to send me anything with an attachment, use one of my other email 
addresses if you know them, or send me an email without attachment first and 
I’ll tell you which email address to use.

And if anyone feels like blowing up EE/Orange I’ll happily support them in 
doing so – I can’t even login on it using Internet Explorer, and Firefox takes 
me to a random page after logging in. Their Contact Us form’s SUBMIT button 
fails to work so I can’t actually get a message to them and they don’t publish 
an email address for getting help, only a 0845 number which puts you in a queue 
for hours on end. 0 out of 10 for effort, EE. If I wasn’t tied into a contract 
with them I’d be off like a shot to someone who actually wants a customer.

Why don't use a proper e-mailer like Thunderbird or Pegasus ?
I recommend Pegasus.

Pointless, since this particular issue is all the fault of the ISP, not the 
mailer program (for once!)


Orange can't even tell me IF the spam control level can be altered, never 
mind how! They insist on having copies of all emails affected including 
headers. Which is a bit difficult since the emails were not getting through 
to me at all, I only found out when the failed senders brought it to my 
attention.


Anyway, it seems the person having problems sending me files who brought 
this to my attention might be slightly blacklisted because in the past 
someone hijacked his email address and used it to try to spam many people. 
Knowing that, there is probably nothing I can do about all this.


Take all spammers out and shoot them at dawn, then we wouldn't have these 
problems.

Because the email confirming the spammer's sentence got delayed in the junk 
mail filter...


And the last cigarette is not permitted on health grounds :-)
