Anyone else getting return messages saying?

The following message to [EMAIL="competitions@cpcmovies.co.uk"]competitions@cpcmovies.co.uk[/EMAIL] was undeliverable.
The reason for the problem:
5.4.7 - Delivery expired (message too old) [Default] 451-'Requested action aborted: local error in processing (code: 11)'<competitions@ cpcmovies.co.uk=""><competitions@cpcmovies.co.uk></competitions@cpcmovies.co.uk></competitions@>

Yes! I got that with the last one I did from them, and - if memory serves - I've had that happen before too. I think some of them may have gone through, though.

You've only been thanked once, even though you have thanked many people.

Thanks for that!

Can anyone tell me how the Buddy List works?

I'm a bit confused about this. If a comp is from a magazine, but has an online, email, or text entry option, should it be posted on the main board or the magazine thread?

you can add someone to your buddy list and then when you open your buddy list you can see whether they are online or not

I would have said that if it has online or email entry then it should be on the main board and anything else on the magazine? Thats just what I assumed though?
