About 2 weeks ago, a contact's name started appearing incorrectly. She says that it only happens to me, so must be a setting I have. It's just annoying for example, the address was MarySmith @ xyz.com and now appears as MaryannySmith @ xyz.com on my inbox "From" line. I deleted her from address book, but the next time she sent email, misspelled again...any ideas? |

When you receive e-mails from this person in the future...double check the senders e-mail address to make sure it's not the "misspelled" address you're referring to. If it's a completely different e-mail account from the sender...maybe it's not misspelled...maybe that's the way the sender created it. - Nick - Too many "beachballs", read this: Beachballs - Computer seems slower than it used to?

The hypothetical e-mail address examples you mentioned earlier (if they are somewhat similar to the "real-world" e-mail address's you are dealing with)...look too similar to be misspellings (to me). They look like a "theme & variations" sort of thing that the sender may use with their e-mail accounts. Again...just a theory.  - Nick - Too many "beachballs", read this: Beachballs - Computer seems slower than it used to? Read this for some slow computer tips: Speedup - Almost full hard drive?

Even if those were fake for examples, they could still be someone's real address. I cannot be held responsible for the things that come out of my mouth. In the Windows world, most everything folks don't understand is called a virus. |
