Curious About Something

[writernan]

I send out a newsletter twice each month (generally) through a self-owned mailing program using sendmail.

 

When I was with my former host, right after the mailing, I would get a slew of "undeliverables" -- usually mailbox full type of thing, but also bad email addresses. This helped me to keep my mailing list cleaned out.

 

I didn't get any of these this time -- my first mailing with TCH. Does anyone know where they are going?

 

Thanks,

Nan

Hi,

 

Just off the top of my head, do you may have your blackhole set up or a different "reply to" in your mail list?

AHA!

 

Just checked Webmail and found everything went to my default address.

 

I THINK I've fixed the problem. I'll know after the next mailing goes out.

 

Have another question along the same lines. When I checked my default web mail, there were SCADS of spam messages. Does this mean I'll need to check this box periodically and clean it out? I never use this particular address for anything.

 

Thanks for your input.

You could set a redirect to that address to :FAIL: and it would kill all messages that came to that address automatically.

 

Now, the keywords there are kill ALL messages.

Thanks!

 

After I posted, I found a way around the problem ... but do appreciate greatly the help from the forum.
