Ask them to try sending themself an email, see if they receive it.

It cant be cos me mates had me addy fer years no probs until today, must be some kinda glitch i'm thinking?

Could be a glitch like you say, emails can be a pain in the backside sometimes, wasn`t meaning they`d got your email address wrong, just that it could be a glitch at their end, not yours.

Best advice is to get a new email with another service. Those free ones are usually crap anyways

Dont really want to ta restless, have had it fer oer 12 yrs wi no problems.plus mates all oer world contact me through it, i'm certain i would forget to notify someone of the change,

Yeah i do understand the pains of a long used email... Easy solution(if your contacts are organised) to that is to click all and send a 'this is my new email ' email. I've never liked those ISP email services. I've used Google for years. Their web based email gets better all the time.

Did you do this Cashman, I still think problem could be at their side, ask them to check their outbox, mails could be in there still waiting to be sent.

Checked, no emails waiting to be sent. Emailed other people ok.

Are there any attachments on email?

Wynonie Harris · 02-04-2014, 11:44

There were on the one this lass sent him, but there wasn't on mine.

Just to be clear, no email coming from you or her but still coming from other people.
Do you know the size of the attachment and what kind of file it is?
Emails with certain file types attached will get blocked.

No idea, but why would my attachment-free email be blocked as well?

Not sure, email problems not my strong point really, just asking a few things hoping to stumble on what`s causing the problem, any kind of PC problem is difficult to troubleshoot when you aren`t actually there to see what`s going on.
Perhaps if it`s a large attachment, possibly sent a couple of times, it may be causing a bottleneck somewhere, doesn`t explain why other emails are coming through though (I take it they still are).
