Is it just me or does web mail have problems?  Spell Check does not work, carriage return does not work where cursor is positioned, the system times out in the middle of writing an email.....  In general the quality of web email is below standard.

I'm not sure about your problem, but lately just about every email I send out from outlook express gets an error message saying what I'm sending out is "spam".... even when I "reply" to someone else's email.

This is horrible. I have read the FAQ section and it says to send in any email that gets bounced back because of this and that they will send it to some third party to review and adjust their filters. And that we will not get any notice about that back.

Does anyone know of any other way to stop this "spam" setting from stopping my outgoing mail?

Sorry I couldn't help you with your problem, and I probably shouldn't have posted mine here.....

  • Spell Check does not work
  • Carriage return does not work where cursor is positioned
  • the system times out in the middle of writing an email.


  • Spell check works for me, but is iffy.  When I hit spell check, it will highlight the words, but it isn't until I click on the word that     I get suggestions to change it to.  Some are good suggestions, many are not for me. 
  • What is a carriage return?
  • You can fix the system time out thing if you have the inbox open.  The system will time you out if it doesn't detect any interaction with the email server.  when you are writing an email you are interacting only with the browser and you.  If you have the email inbox open at the same time, it periodically checks for new mail, and 'that' interaction will keep your session open.

ahhhh,  yeah that is a little buggy,  I notice that being more buggy on the forums, rather than in my emails....  haven't noticed that problem in the emails and I use Google Chrome and IE 8

Works for me. I right click on the misspelled word and it makes suggestions. Admittedly some of the suggestions make no sense, but they are there.

I'm having the same problem since they changed to "Rich Text", the biggest problem is I can NOT go back to a certain spot in my emails to correct something or add something (like a comma or add a word) my cursor will not click into a spot where I have already typed! Spell check only works once in a blue moon, And I need spell check BAD! My problem started way back when Verizon switched to "Rich Text". Verizon email has become impossible to use I have now switched to Yahoo email what is going on? HELP!!
