Hello Mary,

thank you for your response but By me asking our Friends for computer advise how to keep others from bothering you is not causing decention or it is not breaking any rules.

It is good for others to help in computer problems if they do not know how to do things. this is just a post to ask how to stop someone from gaining access to you  if the person has been using multiple email adresses and one such as her does not know enough to do it on her own. the object of friends is suppose to be able to reach out and ask for friendly advise.

In no way could she get in trouble because shes asking for computer help.she has not contacted  the parties or is not creating decention in any way.

So I do not understand what you are saying.

This is I am sure helpful to others to learn what they can do to stop email things.

Thank you Mary for your concern.

Kathy

Speaking from the technical side of things Kathy, with his ability to create an endless number of email addresses these days, she has no choice but to put up with him. (or change email addresses which will probably only work for a short period of time as he would surely acquire the new one) Actually, its more a waiting game than anything the way I see it. The longer she goes with just deleting his emails and not replying, the greater the odds are he will just stop sending them. He will eventually tire of sending emails. Especially if he thinks they are not being read. Granted, it might take a while, but that is probably her best plan of attack. You could block an IP address but that will only work in an instance where someone has an assigned IP address. Most ISPs do not work this way. They assign dynamic IPs. Meaning, each IP has a lifespan (which varies from ISP to ISP). At the end of the IPs lifespan, their connection (modem) is reassigned a new IP address (it is possilbe the IP will be the same, but generally this is not the case). Thus, blocking an IP may only last a very short while as a means of stopping the unwanted emails. Hope that helps a little. I know....not much...but as they say, such is life! :-)

Kathy, I understand. Perhaps the original request should be worded as I need to know how to>>>>>>>>>. Computer advice is needed. etc. Rather than I have a friend....her ex-husband.......gone on with her life.......etc. etc. You will notice by most responses that they are not giving computer advice by how to solve marital disputes. People will answer to your questions. They are saying tell your friend........ The difference is one is asking for facts and the other is laying out the dirty laundry. This causes people to ask as one did on your forum about taking about people..."Who?? Where???". I hope this helps clarify why the concern was expressed that no one be blamed. Terms of service do indicate we talk about facts not people. I know you agree!!

Thank you Mary,

What would we do with out you in our lives?

Thank you for clairifying it,yes we  are looking for computer help as to how to stop email from coming in  that you do not want?

How do you stop someone from using multiple email accounts to get ahold of you?

The option to change her email is not a option as she has to much invested in using the particular email adress she uses.

Is thier really a solution to someone trying to send you letters thru them using multiple accounts?

and when the subject lines are disguised?

Hows that Mary?

these are all computer questions.

Kathy
