Sheilaz Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 I was so surprised to recieve my 1st newsletter when I checked my emails, and even more surprised to see our quotes from the forum. Thankfully nothing too awful, not one of my late night rambles. Great to see your photo there Gina, fame at last! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted June 9, 2005 Author Share Posted June 9, 2005 I didn't realise it was the first news letter....I did wonder if mine had got lost in the post (or cyber space) as I signed up for it ages ago! Yes - I agree on the quotes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted June 9, 2005 Share Posted June 9, 2005 My newsletter hasn't arrived I'll have to try signing up again. Maybe the forum is telling me off for not being in touch for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Louise Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Mine arrived after all. I have a new firewall at work which examines things hard the first time a message comes from a given source. Thereafter it lets them in its to check for Spam so I am okay Kate but thanks for helping to sort it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Oh dear! I've e-mailed James ! I wonder if that's the problem with everyone else? Mine didn't show the photographs or logos until I noticed that my computer was blocking them !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jukebox Tim Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 No newsletter here either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Has anyone else got a firewall which blocks Spam? That could be the problem if you've signed up for the newsletter. I've contacted James about the ones I knew about this morning - you didn't quite get in in time Tim but if I speak to him soon I'll let him know you haven't got yours either. Check your firewalls, people!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 The way my new firewall works it traps the first email and checks it and if its happy it then sends it on if its quiet it should only take 5 mins but yesterday it took a few hours. Any subsequent emails from the same address should sail through. But it is blocking some emails entirely I can't get any from anyone with a hotmail account which is annoying as I get occasional work messages sent from people with hotmail accounts at home.

motherhen Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Mine came through fine on email and it was lovely to read - congratulations Gina on Louise being a cover girl. I hadn't realised it had piccys as well until I saw it mentioned here, so I did the magic right click thing and got it in technicolour glory.

Popcorn Posted June 10, 2005 Author Share Posted June 10, 2005 Hi Louise... I have trouble with my firewall sometimes. You CAN tell the computer which emails or web-sites to accept by typing in the name of the sender/web-site...but HOW you do it...well, it's beyond my computer brain cells! If you have an anti-virus scanner, you could try opening that up and having a look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omlet Staff james Posted June 10, 2005 Omlet Staff Share Posted June 10, 2005 Hi, I am sorry if a few of you did not recieve the Newsletter this time. It could be for any number of technical reasons probably all caused at our end. We are going to make it a weekly newsletter with the best photos you send in, some tips and a featured products etc. Is it okay to take a few quotes from what everyone is discussing? We want to increase the number of egluowners coming to the forum and so will choose the most topical topic and nothing embrassing. : ) James p,s, I will make the newsletters downloadable from the site in case anyone misses them. But this is a few weeks away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I'm just so glad that you won't use the embarrassing bits, James! Some topics could easily be quoted out of context and make us look barmy Its a good idea though, wish you every success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 I'm just so glad that you won't use the embarrassing bits, James! Some topics could easily be quoted out of context and make us look barmy Sheila - we are barmy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
