0 N.O.S. Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) I can't say for certain with Milweb - but sometimes (not always) emails sent via websites like that appear in your own email 'sent items'. If you check in there it should give you the email address to which they were sent. If so, then you should get a delivery failure message if it doesn't reach the recipient.

0 Marmite!! Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Emails to sellers on Milweb get sent directly from your email account & not through the Milweb website.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Richard Farrant Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Why not just copy and paste the sellers email address straight in to your normal email page and send them that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard, as far as I am aware & is the case for me, when you click on a sellers email on Milweb it automatically opens your default email program, it doesn't get sent via Milweb..

Agreed - it just gives you a "mailto: " Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Lee, I agree with that, but on my pc, I do not use that default email program, but use the one on my server (BT in my case). I suspect this is what Commando is doing. I know they do not go through Milweb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Lauren Child Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Keep in mind that email is not 100% reliable and is not always immediate. If it's important then pick up the phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Lauren Child Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Make sure to send off your message with the pigeon, too! There is a standard for internet over carrier pigeon, for those locations where broadband isn't available.

But in South Africa a pigeon could carry 4GB over 60 miles faster than the internet - really! http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8248056.stm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
