Alesta has been having trouble with her registration at Babble, and I understand she's just waiting on receipt of a confirmation email. For a couple of days?

She's love to get back on the boards.

I think it's trouble with her email...

Thanks, Bob, but she contacted me by email to ask me for help in posting about it, and I successfully replied that I had complied. Could you re-send the confirmation email?

Thanks.

Then the trouble might be limited to email from this server?

It's possible, I suppose. Thanks for trying to troubleshoot this.

Did you get a "bounce" notice?

Did you get her emails, over the last few days? I really don't know any specific details. I'm just the man in the middle. I'll ask her some questions.

Just a suggestion-- if she has an email that automatically routes spam someplace, she might want to look in the spam folder. I use Outlook Express and it seems any mail from an automated server (including Dr Bob's) ends up in the Spam folder.

It seems that I can send and receive, but when the server sends, it bounces...

If you, as admin, contact her ISP, you can resolve this. That's what I had to do, once, with her email provider. They bounced me for about a week, until I got the ISP's themselves to communicate.

I'm sorry this one comes down to that, but her administrators wouldn't allow her to set a white list, an "always allow" list of email senders.

I'm sure she'd really appreciate your efforts on this, as there is literally nothing she can do about it. It is indeed a www.dr-bob.org specific bounce.

Muchos gratias,
Lar
