welldone, Admin.  You brought it back online early.

 

I had an oddity -- received 4 emails, instead of one from someone.  Doesn't appear to have reoccurred.  Happened yesterday.

 

Also, it would be great if I could hit delete, and delete all the emails, not just a page ofthem...but, I am happy to be able to at least delete a page at a time, with one click.  thanks!  cleaning up my mass.

Wow - this is back early! The only issue I've noticed so far is that all my wondermails from the past are now appearing as unread.

*knocks on the wall*  Hmm.  *knocks on the picture of AaronMcGallegos and waits for a reaction*  Hmm.

 

*looks up towards the ceiling*  It isn't falling...and the sysops are STILL ALWAYS WATCHING.

 

*looks toward the Alpaca tied to a stoat*  And our scapealpaca is still there.

 

*goes to open the closet...then thrusts it back shut when mail threatens to kill all*  EEP!!!  Talk aboot Fibber McGee!

 

OMG, is that...a FACADE device?  Made by SonyMcDonnyLongNow Inc Corp ConTMRSTLNE??  With real 4-D technology?  W O W...thanks, Sysops.  You're THE BEST.  Wow, NEW FONTS!!!

Thanks Somegalfromcan and Pinga, We will look into these possible bugs. I also notice all my WonderMails showing up as unread. Hmmm.

 

Thanks, Aaron (for WonderCafe admin)

Not all, Aaron.

Answer1:

What is happening is "sent" mail is unread. which makes sense. most people don't read their "sent" email.

 

Query1

Not sure how the mailbox now differentiates between sent and received.

 

Challenge1

My total unread mail is showing approx 1900 (I deleted a bunch).

I am still getting a message that i have over 3000.

I cannot send mail

drag that I have to delete a page at a time, but better than one at a time, especially given that there is a limit now.

I am also noticing that it is still impossible to resize pictures and am wondering if that will be fixed sometime?

Somegalfromcan,  to resize pictures you have to change the input format (see below edit box "Switch to plain text editor"...> "Input Format":  Click on Input Format, click on circle that says Full HTML. 

 

Then click on your picture: right click, click on Image Properties at the bottom, in the Width box enter 400 (this is the right size for WC) the Height will automatically adjust.  Click OK

 

Voila!  Picture Perfect cool

I tried putting the image before I switched to plain text editor, and the image disappeared leaving the website address for the picture in its' place. I tried doing it after switching, but that didn't work either. What am I missing???

Somegalfromcan - do *not* switch to plain text editor.

 

Click the line below that - Input format

Thanks folks. I will try to look into these issues. Pinga, the answer to your Query 1 is that I don't think the new WonderMail differentiates your sent mail from your received mail. But it becomes apparent when you receive a reply - you will see the two (or more) in the same thread. Will look into the inability to send messages even though you below the limit. Anybody else having this problem?

 

Looks like the resizing of pictures is figured out, right?

 

Thanks,

aaron, ignore that, i should have editted it.

 

I was being thick.  The count being displayed was unread.  At the bottom of the mail list, it showed my total messages. I was over.

Is it just me, or has it been quiet since WC went offline?  Maybe everyone is just too busy deleting emails!
