"So, Mr Slumpy you *really* are the perpetual comedian, aren't you ?" I
threw back my head and roared with laughter as jacqueline continued:

Try with a less popular subject.
And trim the excessive sig please, especially for a two-line post.

<snip broken sig>

 

Not only escessive, its also broken.

 

Not only excessive, its also broken.

I never said it was escessive, only excessive

geeks you know.
Jacqueline "no sigs"

 

Sigs are OK if they are delimited with '-- ' thats dash, dash, space, on a
clear line. This is so that newsreader software can automatically strip
them from replies. And sigs shouldnt really exceed 3 or 4 lines of text.

 

Thanks Paul that is something I never knew as I am still learning to crawl
PC wise.
Where do I put the '--' or is it better to not put a sig in at all which I
don't mind not doing really its just that I felt soooo clever when I found
out how to do it that I was showing off.Thanks for help.

Do as Brian suggested download OE Quotefix, as OE's sig handling is broken.

To add your own correctly formatted sig to posts automatically in OE once
Quotefix is installed, go on Tools > Options > Signatures. OE will then add
your sig to your posts with the correct '-- ' delimiter.

 

Yes its perfectly OK to have a sig, as long as its not broken and/or
excessive. Say your name, website and a one-liner if you wish.

 

Surely emails don' go to newsgroups or have I missed something here?

Not at all either.
Your posts are reaching this NG so you can post here.
Do you think you may have a problem with your ISP email server?
As with ALL helpgroups you need to be specific & detailed with your query.
Try & tell people more accurately what you you are using & what your problem
is & you will find a host of very knowledgable people who can't spell but
are happy to give you their best shot to help you.
Since we have established that you can post to NGs try a re-submission with
more detail & you will recieve help if it is available.

Good luck
Merlin

 

That slumpy's a gut burger!
