| 380829 | 2005-08-14 01:07:00 | Is there any Incredimail users out there??? Seems to have a bad rep (what don't I know)but I like it. What do you use. |

| 380830 | 2005-08-14 01:30:00 | Yes it has a bad rep and deservidly so in my books. While it has a lot of bells and whistles for those that love them it sends too much rubbish within the email and a lot of businesses will reject emails because of that. I personally put anyone who uses it in my message filter and have them deleted straight off the server. | mikebartnz (21) | ||
| 380831 | 2005-08-14 04:07:00 | Not to mention the spyware it comes with. Anyone using it should be taken out the back and shot. | pctek (84) | ||
| 380832 | 2005-08-14 04:57:00 | Before you consider using Incredimail, I think you should try Bonzi Buddy... WAIT! That was a joke! DON'T USE EITHER!!!! :eek: |

| 380833 | 2005-08-14 10:24:00 | Is there any Incredimail users out there??? Seems to have a bad rep (what don't I know)but I like it.Apart from all the reasons not to use it like spyware etc, i have to ask why use it? When i see a message with a tiled background image and colored text i cringe. Plain text on white background works well. It communicates, and that is the function of email is it not? I prefer plain text to HTML because most HTML mail is distracting. If people just used the occational bold and similar gentle things i would have no problem with it, but some people seem to want to send several KBs of fruit salad rather than a typed letter. I know one person tells me he filters HTML mail and treats it as possible spam. Only plain text makes it directly to his inbox. I'd do the same if i could figure out how! |

| 380837 | 2005-08-14 17:06:00 | After having a good night's sleep after this post, I believe I might have lost the true value of this person's question . Being the nutcase I am, and the parallax view I have on things made me miss their real point and question . What I believe we ALL DID (in our younger days - - - 'puter wise) was download a lot of neat-o looking stuff that really messed our systems up badly . I admit I fell for the stupid monkey at first . Bonzi-Buddy was like the WeatherBug and the Desktop Slideshow, and cute bunnies and butterfly screens . I think we all went thru this stage, and being the short-sighted people we are today, we forget (or have a convenient memory for) the things we did to our 'puters . If I had had a place like F1 to tell me just why these cute things are really not the right thing to do, perhaps my own learning curve would have been a little shallower at it's nader . I am sorry to not have had empathy for this person's question . . . I should have . . . BEEN THERE, DONE IT . :blush: |
