Disguising your business email address?

Is it possible to disguise your email address and not be blacklisted or is that a red flag because you are hiding your true identity?





For example say my email address is 312@abc.com and I disguise it as coming from chris@business.com. What I am doing is taking my home email address and making it my business address but making it look more professional.





I know how to set this up I am just wanting to know if it will blacklist my email address and make it so my clients do not get my email I am sending because servers think it is spam.





Thanks for your help.

Disguising your business email address?
Disguising your e-mail address is going to get your e-mail blocked by many spam filters. It will also reduce trust amongst your clients.





You would be better off using your proper business address and if you want to receive e-mails from it set up a forwarder to forward a copy of all e-mails to your home address (being careful to remain within data privacy laws for your country).





If you are using a domain name and web host for receiving business e-mails, then there is a good chance that your web host offers a web based e-mail client (such as Horde, or Squirrel Mail). If you use an e-mail client on your computer to download e-mail from your server, you should be able to set it to leave a copy on the server (either for x amount of days, or until you delete it from your computer e-mail program's trash folder). If you do this, you could then access your business e-mail from your home computer and send responses from that address without having to mask up your home e-mail address. Or you could put the appropriate settings into your home computer's e-mail program to receive your business e-mails from your web server also, and simply store them in a dedicated folder within your e-mail program.





Best of luck.


Email trouble?

i sent a email, it is in the sent box of my email but i got a email back saying, delivery status notification (failure). what happened???

Email trouble?
I assume this is the first or second time you sen th mail to this particular guy, what is it tha they have safeguards in place to stop spamming, In subject did you say hi, hello or pic, they go straight to spam, what you do is send him another "saying" i was thinking" in the subject" surely it will go, this happened wit my new account.
Reply:There's a typo in the address? Does the failure notification give a reason for the failure? Have the other person send you an e-mail, and then add his/her address to your contact list to avoid typing mistakes. Hope this helps...
Reply:Check the email address you sent it to, It happened to me b4
Reply:can you copy exactly what it said


it can be so many things





like their mailbox is full and it bounces back as failure





please cut and paste what it said so we don't just duess blindly





thankx =)
Reply:the email failed. Most likely the address you entered is wrong, or dosnt exist anymore.





Its very unlikely that your DNS server would reject the email but you can always try again if that was the case.
Reply:Your email was not sent. Sometimes it is because an attachment is to large or you have the wrong email address.
Reply:The email was probably sent to a non-existent e-mail address. You may have made an error when typing it. The person you are sending it to may also have a full inbox, and is unable receive any more e-mails.


Email virus please help?

Guys i think i have a virus on my email ******* ****! I want to find an email scanner or an email anti virus, please help me out!

Email virus please help?
If you have a virus then I would suggest the following, The avira is a good scanner that gives real time protection and it will block malicious attacks on your system, The spyware Doctor also gives some realtime protection and works well to remove nastys,





Update and use your own antivirus or download one of the antivirus tools below and along with the spyware doctor and update them and restart your computer in safe mode ( tap F-8) during startup, then scan with the antivirus and the spyware doctor while in safe mode, this should find it so you can remove it; Please note that you should only run one antivirus on your computer at one time,





Avira Antivirus free (Recommended)

The free edition of spyware doctor, The best for removing spyware, adware and malware and it finds backdoor trojans and its free, ( Recommended)

Reply:I would suggest running Kapersky free 30 day trial to completely check and disinfect your system (believe me it's infected). Then if you want to use free ware I would suggest Comodo firewall, AVG or Avira Antivir, and SpywareTerminator. Here are the download links.

Avira

SpywareTerminator

I would seriously recommend using the Kapersky Internet Security Suite though. It uses less system resource since it is a suite. Also it is one of the top 3 systems world wide. Usually #1 or #2.
Reply:you can go to www.tucows.com, and download a lot of freeware, or shareware, something there should help you out!

Email follow up to a job application?

I emailed an application to an elementary school applying for a summer internship around 10 days ago and never heard back. No phone number was given, just an email. I'm sure I could find a phone number if I looked on their website, but I feel like that's not appropriate if they only had an email contact on the job posting.





Should I email a follow up? What should I say? I was hoping to at least get an interview, because I had a lot of applicable experience for a student. I always feel obnoxious pestering people about my applications. There was no definite end date for hiring.

Email follow up to a job application?
As it has been said email them back. Sometimes emails get lost or junked.


Always follow up emails in 2 days and a phone number is not a bad idea.


When making application via email make sure you understand what form of a reply they are looking for.


Attach forms and documents as doc and pdf if possible and double check spelling and grammar.
Reply:You should definitely follow up with an email. They need to know that, out of the hundreds of emails about this job that they received, you are really serious.


In addition, find the phone number and make the call. If they say its already filled, chalk it up to a life experience. You may already be too late. This should have been done earlier.


EMail received confirmation from the receiver ?

Is there a way to be 100% sure that the receiver of our eMail has received our eMail ? I already know that we can set the options in our eMail receiving software to always ask for READ RECEIPT CONFIRMATION from the receiver. This method is not a foolproof one.

EMail received confirmation from the receiver ?
If you are talking about a company network where everyone is using the same mail system, you should be able to set that option in the same window where you set the Read Reciept Request. If you are sending the mail to another network, your mail system administrators can run some reports to verify that the recipient's network got it but not the actual mailbox--- for example, if you send to jane@company.com your admins can find out that company.com recieved the message but not that it actually got forwarded along to Jane. But you'd have to have pretty good reason before you asked your mail admins to get that information for you, and they'd probably never do that for more than a few emails every now and then because, depending on the software they use, that could be a lot of work! If you are talking about your personal mail account, you are probably out of luck.





It will never be 100% foolproof to get this kind of confirmation because it involves reading log files that belong to another company and most companies treat that as confidential information.


I received an email and cannot see all recipients the sender sent the email to. How can I see all recipients?

lets say i emailed the email and when you received the email all you would be able to see if your email address (recipient) and my email address (sender)

I received an email and cannot see all recipients the sender sent the email to. How can I see all recipients?
well if the sender has included you and the rest of the recipients in the BCC box no one would be able to see them unless either your included in the TO box or the CC box


CC goes for Carbon Copy so everyone could see to whom the email was sent to and BCC stands for blind carbon copy which hides the recipients so theres no way you could get your hands on them unfortn
Reply:sometimes using Reply-to-All will bring up everybody on the mailing list.





good luck

Email problems..?
Ya you never want to open spam messages. Never a good idea there. Yahoo is pretty good about resolving its problems unlike Myspace. haha but anyway just give the Yahoo's some time to work the problems out. I am having trouble accessing my Yahoo email through Outlook so that might be the same thing.
Reply:Yes its true its that time around the year were get viruses in emails that you don't recognize and as far as the email problem check if you have a pop up blocker of if on the top of the email when opening it has a little yellow box that says show image now if neather then yahoo might be spaming emails witch means protection for your benefit not to get any virus and don't open suspicious email just spam it,

If this was helpful please Vote best Answer. Thanks!
Reply:It might help if you told us what the EXACT error message is. Can't help with that little information, there can literally be hundreds of things wrong with your email based of that vague a description of the problem.





Also what program is this? Outlook? Yahoo's on-site mail system?
Reply:Try clearing out the cache, then restart the computer. If that doesn't work, try opening email in another browser. If you have IE, d/l Firefox and give that a shot.
Reply:havent heard anything about either of these problems. try using the help section and get in touch with Yahoo about your email
Reply:same here I heard it too
