    I can stop them coming in to my email address but then it'll just fill up the email server of my provider.... I can't stop it coming in their side

    God, I've just deleted another 1000 odd and I'm almost up to 500 more!!!!

    OMFG! I just got accepted for a loan that 1, I can afford to pay off myself if anything goes wrong and 2, I can buy half a sandwich take away place!

    *deep breath* the next few months will be exciting, I have to re-learn bookeeping. I have to organise my life. I'm going to college as well.

    Off to do dishes and S&S bathroom since I'm on a high.

    I think that in that case, you have to stop them to yours and then let them deal with it, the longer you keep clearing them the longer the problem will exist. While they might not have user help on over the weekend they will have systems people on to deals with problems and keep up and running

    They don't have systems people on hand over the weekend! But they do seem to have implemented a better system than before - there were occasions when their email server went down because it filled up. they seem to be limiting things to 500 emails a time. I get 500 come in and then it stops. Until I do a send/receive. Then I get another 500. Trouble is, I need my email this weekend for various reasons.

    Arrgggghhhh!! I'm going to save one of them and then get in touch with the organisation I believe is under attack on Monday and ask them to explain themselves!

    Off to delete another 500.. I guess I should only have to do that about 26 times to clear the 11000....
