Hi ya girls...I know some of you are really worried about opening attatched emails or forwarded emails because of the risk of getting a virus..so here are a couple things you can do to help prevent it...
First never foreward an email or send attatchments..my email is set up to not open attatchments as I have recieved too many with viruses in them...you can send the email by copy and pasting it into a new mail ...for Outlook Express: right click on the email you'd like to share...click on select all...now right click again..and click copy...now open a new email...right click in the message area and click on paste...now you can back space or delete all email addy's from the message and just leave the message...
For Hotmail...go to the bottom of the email you'd like to copy...left click at the end of the message..now hold the left button down and highlight the message...now hold down the ctrl button and click on the letter c...this copies the email...open a new mail..click on the message area...no click the clipboard (paste) button...you'll find it at the top of the message area...two to the right of the scissors...this will paste your message
if you get lots of << or >> in your message..then you can clean it up by copying your message and pasting it here http://pages.prodigy.net/taion/cleaner.html then click on clean...it will take all the symbols out of your email..you just have to scroll down a bit and see it all cleaned up...then you can copy and paste it in a new email...
Some people get upset if you send their email addys with your emails..like when you group email...you can also avoid this by group emailing with the Bcc button on your email program. For Outlook: Click on the To: button on the right side you will see the Bcc: button..click on the addy you want to add on the left..then click the Bcc: button...you can add more names by clicking them and then the Bcc: button again...when you are done click Ok...when your email goes out to all your friends it will not show all the email addys you sent it too...For Hotmail:..the button is available right above your message area...
If your email has pictures on it it may not send the pictures with it by copy and pasting...if you really want them to go with your email..right click on the picture..a grey box comes up..look for save picture...click on it..I save all my pictures in My Documents under My pictures...that way I can access them easy..haha...once you have saved them all you can add them to your email again...to do this..for Outlook Express: Click on the insert button at the top of your message box...now click on picture..go to where you stored your pictures and click on the one that you'd like to add...and voila it will be added...For Hotmail..click on Add/Edit attachments click on the Browse button to find your picture..click on it and then click on open...now click on attatch and then ok...it won't add the pic to your email but your friends can see it by clicking on attatchment...but you can copy and paste your pictures into hotmail and they usually show up....
..If you'd like to share a fun page or joke page..rather than fill out all the info on their site (like addys, names etc) you can go to the page..and then go to the url addy area and copy the website addy by clicking in the url box (this highlights it)..then click on Ctrl and C on your keyboard (this copies the address)...then for Outlook: click on insert on a new email ..then click hyperlink.. paste by hitting ctrl V on your keyboard..then ok..this will put the link in your email..For hotmail click on the world button at the top of your message area...and paste in the same fashion as outlook then click on insert
Hope this helps!
