    Sorry to bump hjb123,many thanks for your post's they are most appreciated, :beer:

    I hope that you don't think that I am being pedantic by posting the following

    Have just been to the website and have noticed that they have given the answers as
    a) Green
    b) Red

    c) Blue


    I may be wrong :confused: but it may be best to send the answer as a) Green (what do others think?) ;)

    also they ask for your
    name, age, address and contact number to be included in the email

    if you click on the websites email link the email comes out
    in Outlook Express as

    Subject: Hulk Competition

    with the following in the body

    Answer:
    Name:
    Age:
    Address:
    Contact Number:

    it may be best to enter the
    [EMAIL="competitions@cpcmovies.co.uk"]cpcmovies.co.uk[/EMAIL] competitions from the email links on the website link provided by hjb123 ;)

    Kind regards

    Have contacted them with the following

    Hi there,

    I am trying to enter the competitions on your website howether all of my emails are being returned with the following message

    "This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification

    Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

    [EMAIL="competitions@cpcmovies.co.uk"]competitions@cpcmovies.co.uk[/EMAIL]

    Technical details of permanent failure:
    Google tried to deliver your message, but it was rejected by the recipient domain. We recommend contacting the other email provider for further information about the cause of this error. The error that the other server returned was: 550 550 <competitions@cpcmovies.co.uk>: quota exceeded (state 14)."

    can you help to rectifiy the problem?,
    is there a problem with your email server?

    Kind Regards

    Update

    "Thank You for for your intrest in CPC Movies. We try where possible to
    reply to all emails recieved, however due to the quantity of emails we
    recieve we may not always be able to do this."

    well to be honest I have put the correct answer so dont see what the problem is, the linky to the page is there so if people want to put a different answer then so be it. It doesnt actually state what form the answer has to be

    You have given your own interpretation of the correct answer hjb123 which I still believe to be incorrrect, as I think that the prerequisite of the competition is to give the correct preformat which is A,B,or C followed by the answer

    also by not including
    in your post the details which are in the websites clickable email links the webmaster or site owner can see where the emails have originated from and may choose to block or disregard the emails from MSE's compers

    as you say hjb123 the linky to the web page is there so if people want to put a different answer they can do so, howether if they take your answers for granted then they will not click on your linky and give the correct answer and the correct details and may well disqualifiy themselves from this and future competitions ;)

    well i still dont see a problem, there are plenty of other competitions on here where there are a,b, and c before the answer and they dont get put on so are they going to get questioned too?

    the link is included so people can see go to that or type the email address into an email if they dont want to see where it has come from though people have won through the email comps I post

    i believe many compers have either a signiture with all the info on or like me have a paragraph they copy and paste into into each email that has my name, address, postcode, telephone number, email address and age so dont see the problem with that either
