Guest guest Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 >Hi Kaylene....With my ISP Grolen Communications I have unlimited email. Thats my one and only email address. I don't use yahoo mail at all. I'm just in the yahoogroups. I'm confused. I have checked my bounce status and it said it was a Hard bounce whatever that is. Tammy Hutchins shrimperooski@...

Groups > Groups Help > My Groups Help > Why does it say my account is " bouncing " ? If group messages sent to your email address are returned to Yahoo! Groups as undeliverable ( " bouncing " ), your Yahoo! Groups account may be temporarily disabled. Messages can be returned for several reasons: Your mailbox may be full -- try deleting messages from your Inbox. Your ISP may have a backlog of email to process -- contact your ISP. Your ISP may be blocking email from Yahoo! Groups -- contact your ISP. In many cases, Yahoo! Groups can automatically reactivate your account once the delivery problem is solved. However, in some cases you will need to manually reactivate your account: Visit your My Groups page. Look for a bounce alert near the top of the page. Click the Alert link to reactivate your account. I know it describes the difference between a soft bounce and a hard bounce somewhere but I can't find it right now. I think it has to do with the frequency of bouncing. I hope you are getting your messages okay now. Kaylene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Ok thanks Kaylene. I understand now. Thanks for helping. I had to go to yahoogroups to see if I was bouncing and saw and did the reactivation which was this morning sometime. Tammy Hutchins shrimperooski@...
