My mind was torn on this topic. Entry or Pearl of Wisdom? I decided to do an Entry, since it is probably best done with an explanation.
I am having repeated connection issues tonight. I don't get it, since my VoIP is working, my router shows it's good to go, the modem is good to go, and everything seems to be where it should be, but my computer keeps going offline.
Earlier today I had written an email to someone in response to one to me, and it wouldn't go. I was going nuts. It kept saying there was no such person. But I had sent another email to the person within minutes of that one, on another topic. I stuck it in "send later" and figured I would try later.
Meanwhile, in my "send later" file are some very personal emails I wrote and never sent to a person I care about. Sort of like drunk dialing, only I was sober and never sent them. Little notes, you know, things I wanted to say but never actually would. Too personal, too extreme, too silly.
You see where this is going, don't you?
After several grrrr moments of being online, offline, online, offline - I don't expect this with wireless - I was getting a little crabby. I was on again, so I went to my "send later" file and clicked on "send" for the email I wanted to send. No, I didn't click on the wrong one. Meanwhile, I noticed why it wasn't going. There was an exclamation point in the cc box. Oops.
Right after I clicked, it went offline again. Then back on. I clicked again to get that damn email sent.
It went, since I had removed the exclamation point. Sadly, so did the next email.
Whoops. It was NOT one I wanted sent. Not when I wrote it in February, not now, not ever.
I think I will take my shower now. I am having very early company and I will need to be up extra early to get the egg off my face or my feet out of my mouth. Whatever, I am not sure what phrase fits here.
Maybe we need a new one.

Umm, is it tacky to ask for a BCC on that one?

Ohhh boy, not a good stroke of luck there, that's for sure. Hopefully, the email won't bring you too much grief for having sent it. Maybe it'll bring a response better than you expect. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Things happen for a reason, and that doesn't always have to be a bad thing.
oh my I hear egg is good for the skin though. long as you dont leave it on too long. Maybe this person some how wont get it!!!!!! I srue hope not. I tell you that just plain ole sux!!!!!! I sure hope all works out well with that
OMG, I take it that letter wasn't sent to somebody on AOL -- had it been, you could have done the "unsend" thing. That has saved me more than once, but is useless on non-aol mail.
My friend once did something similar. She accidentally sent a very personal email to the whole list of email addresses she uses only for joke emails and stuff like that. What a fiasco!
I hope your mistake doesn't bite you in the behind!! Hopefully, it will come back undeliverable...with any luck, the recipient has changed his/her isp/email address.
Good luck!!

Yikes! Unsend quick! Is it already too late? I can only imagine what was in that email! Let us know what happens! Martha :-)
LOL...I haven't quite done that...but in my former job, we IM'd all the time, and if you were in the wrong IM box, but thought you were talking to someone else...yikes!! Gossip via IM...good one!! I hate computer issues...you can always tell your "former" friend that you were drunk!!

We had connection issues the other day as well. I think it was an internet thing, not your computer.
