Can not receive email from myself

When I send an email to myself, I do not receive it. I receive other email just fine. My address is not on the blocked senders list.

What type of mail account do you have? If you also have a webbased version
provided by your ISP can you send to yourself from there?

Thanks for the reply Robert. I have a POP3 account with SBC (Pacbell). For some reason, when I send myself an email from that account, or when my address is in a group mailing that I send from that account, it is never received.

It could be a anti-spam setting as you normally don't mail yourself (there I
go; saying that I'm not normal :-D)

See if you can mail yourself by using the webinterface of the ISP. If it
doesn't provide you one use this one;
http://www.mail2web.com/

Thanks Robert
I don't receive mail to myself from mail2web either. The mail doesn't show up in my spam folder either. Do you know of a work around since I oftern need to include myself in group mailing in order to have the same packet as the rest of the group

Thanks

Contact your ISP and explain why you need it.

A workaround would be to use a free account that would allow you to
automatic forward a message. This way you can send a message to that account
and have it automatically forwarded to your home account.
