Re: Lots of Email bounce backs
Where are you getting the email addresses from? I just sent out about 200 and got probably 15 problem responses. I think I read on another thread on here that some of the email servers have "red flag" words that bounce your email, but don't quote me on that one. Not that I want to insult your intelligence or anything (and merely speaking from experience here) but I noticed sometimes when I cut and pasted an email address from imdb pro I would have an extra space at the end or the beginning when I went to past it in my TO line. So, I guess the best advice I can give is just look at that first and foremost.
Again, I'm new to the boards so if you are seasoned vet and were merely stating an observation, please don't take my response as a know it all.

Re: Lots of Email bounce backs
I've also noticed that aol seems to be added characters in the body of any e-mail I create. It won't be in it when I create it, it gets added when I send it. But not always.
So, I'll have something like this in an query e-mail:
"Thanks for your =>consideration"
I am now paranoid about sending any e-queries!sigpic http://blip.fm/Peasblossom

I think anyone who sees something like that knows it's just internet weirdness - I've got some script requests where the popped up in my queries, so I wouldn't sweat it.sigpic http://blip.fm/Peasblossom
