email computer problem

[Ken Gargett]

hi guys

as is well known, i am not terribly techno efficent but have a new porblem. some idiot pr woman sent an email to myself and one other bloke. he replied to us both. everything else re the computer seems fine but i cannot view these emails, read them, open them or more importantly, delete them and get them out of my system. the email operation completely freezes if i go near these emails. others seem fine.

any ideas?

Did you receive it certainly? Your friend might misunderstand that he sent to you too but actually didn't.

Maybe the emails are accompanied by huge attachments that haven't downloaded completely yet when you try to access them? Just a wild guess...

Are you using Outlook and a PST file for email storage?

I assume you rebooted several times and all that jazz before posting.

Are you are using Outlook Express or Outlook? If you are and can access your email via the web, try that. I have had emails hang and do similar things. Accessing email via a web browser has let me delete the email or emails in question and then open up Outlook Express or Outlook and all was well.

Have you spoken to Australia Post about this issue?

Online dating has risks Ken. Try to stick to the main ones such as RSVP.com and avoid some of your favourites, "Visually Impaired Dating" & "Low Expectations International".
