      Paging Chris Holstrom... URGENT!!

      Hey Chris,

      You sent me an email last night with a 6.3MB attachment. That's great and all, but your computer is sending the same email over and over and over again.

      I get another copy of the same email every two minutes. I've deleted over 500 emails and it's crashing my system.

      I've sent you a couple emails.. help!

      lol

      for now, can you "block" him as a sender, at least till he gets it figured out?
      72 Nova SS, on the back burner for now.

      '70 Impala 4drht, 26K original miles, 2" drop springs and large swaybars, drives pretty good for a land yahct in the middle of an ls1 swap, but thinking about changing directions to a duramax diesel swap.

      Nope, I tried setting it as SPAM, but it won't take for some reason.. it's like it's possesed.

      Normally when I flag something as SPAM it goes to a special folder that auto deletes. Not working here.

      I just deleted another 50 emails...

      Sometimes with really large attachments, my email will send it but does not recognize that it has been sent....so it will re-send indefinitely..until I delete it.

      It most likely a SMTP problem on the sender's side that caused this. I've also seen it on the receivers side if the POP3 server doesn't think you got the message, it just keeps re-delivering the same message over and over and over.... but this can be verified via a webmail client if one is available. I know this is probably TMI...

      But did the attachments come through successfully? You might ask him to resend, just to be sure.
