Email help needed.

i'll give that a miss then.
if i use outlook do i just put my email setting from incredimail over into outlook, what happens with the emails i have already in incredimail and my contacts list?

Like with all junk mail.You get in your car,drive to the post office and shout at the bafoon behind the counter until they promise not to deliver any more unwanted mail.

Or...

Just set up any of the afore mentioned mail clients to use IMAP and not POP. and make use of the server side mail rejection routines. Even Telskum has them.

hotmail account is cool....i never had any problems with that what so ever... only sometimes i little slow to get in , but not often...

no matter what email you choose, how do you get your contacts into that new email.
i only have about 8 contacts in my Incredimail account and if i use Outlook express and make it my default email, do i have to copy the emails over by hand?

Wayne is there not an <import contacts> option.

I have this in Opera.

 

[waynegohl]

in Outlook yes there is but it does not give me an option to import from incredimail. from what i can figure you can only import from another recognized email account but as incredimail is a kind of gimmicky email it does not pick it up.
i hope i am making sense.

 

[Boodles]

Can you export your contacts from incredimail, If so, does it give you options as how you would like to save it. It might just allow you 2 or 3 ways to save.

 

[waynegohl]

ok will have a look now otherwise i will just do it by hand.

 

[waynegohl]

aaahh ha i said export the contacts and i can save them to a folder on my pc now i must just get them to outlook now, thanks Boodles at least thats a start.

You could send a blank email to yourself with all your contacts in the cc field. Receive the mail in your new email client and choose to add all recipients to your new clients address book. Only thing is, all your pals will wonder what you're doing

added contacts to outlook express and sent a message the reply came back to incredimail, what now?

 

[waynegohl]

i don't understand how this email thing works can someone please talk slow enough for me to understand please please.

so i used my info given to me from telkom to setup outlook express with my name as the recipient on my pc and my wifes name as recipient on her laptop. and i set them as the default emails but i still get emails in incredimail.

how do i set up the settings so she gets her mail and i get my mail if we only have one email address from telkom?
do i also change the sending settings and the receiving settings in each of our pc's?

i have a problem getting my mind around how this email story works.
