Email Bouncing

I have just received an email from supposedly Scott Adams stating the below. I tried returning a reply, but my email was undelivered.

The return address is info@glutenfreeforum.com

"If you forum email continues to bounce we will have to delete your account.

Take care,

Scott"

What I want to know is if this is a genuine email, and if it is, what does it mean?

I have never sent emails to the forum and I only use this site to answer or create topics. So I have not got a clue what it means. I received Scott's updates by email, acutally I do not read them, maybe I should have. But I have not changed my email address, so any emails to me should not bounce.

Help I am so confused.

I was just wondering, is this service not free and is ther a subscription fee to participate. If that is the case I am guilty.

So Scott, or anybody who can help me with this problem, please advise me.

I do not want to be dropped from this forum as I have found it really helpful.

Thanks in anticipation

What happens is you get regular mailings from the forum. If they bounce back, eventually they will figure you are no longer there. Try emailing him through this link: https://www.celiac.com/catalog/contact_us.php

According to your profile your at hotmail.

This probably means hotmail is bouncing the emails automatically.

Personally I never used hotmail (and wouldn't for a lot of reasons) but yahoo mail and gmail allow you to take "spam" sites out of the "spam list"... I don't know about MSN... you will have to look in the options.

Secondly, so far as I know the subscription for the emails is seperate the the forum....

Hotmail is really bad in a lof of ways and they seemingly randomly choose domains not to allow you to send to or deliberately hold up the email, this is specially noticeable if you try and send to another free account... this explains why you couldn't reply.

I think what Microsoft do is ban whole addresses for everyone so if someone marks it as spam then everyone else gets blocked...

I've just got the same email from Scott and I don't use Hotmail. I do know that our server is trying to weed out SPAM though, as we all are... So perhaps the email from Scott is getting kicked out.

I do hope that we don't get kicked out of the forum over this! :o:(

I've also been having email problems today from other sources, so this might be the same thing.

Is your "mailbox" filled up at the server? That is, your email account only gets so much space. If your server isn't automaticly deleting your mail (at the server), it may be reading "full" and bouncing new emails. Check with Hotmails email help section. I had to deal with this years ago on Prodigy. (Yes, I'm old.) :rolleyes:

This isn't my problem as I manage my email right from the server website and delete on a daily basis. I emailed tech support, so hope they come up with an answer soon as it's really annoying when the email is not working right.

Thanks for that gfp

I have now changed to gmail. My email address where I getting notification wasn't hotmail but my internet provider. Occassionally it hiccups. Hotmail was an alternative address I had listed for people to contact me if needed.

And then when I tried to get back onto this forum yesterday, I had no luck, and I really thought I was completely locked out. But I see the forum was down, and I am able to get on now. I tell you it led to a bad nights sleeping, wondering where I would get my internet fix next from.

Thanks for your help everyone, I can now go to work happy.

Gmail has the advantage you can download the messages to your local inbox....(free version) you can do this in Yahoo if you pay and I guess MSN/Hotmail of you pay too.

(you need to set up the pop options)

If you do this you know you have a backup if the terms and conditions ever change and you can set your local email client prog like outlook or thunderbird to download from your ISP account AND gmail account.... (belt and suspenders)

You can also set yourself up a seperate gmail account (invite yourself at other address) and use that specifically for signing up to forums etc... and not download that one... and leave the messages on the server as well.

This is what I do so I can check my email from anywhere but I also have a safety copy locally if the terms change or something weird happens. Seriously think about this ...imagine how inconveneient it is to have phone # addresses and stuff in emails and be unable to access them....

and so far as I still know

Hello Kaycee,

Yes, that came from me and was sent because the automatic email notifications that are sent out to you by this board--perhaps from the topics that you subscribed or posted to--began bouncing back to us, and this is for your AOL address.

If you have a new email address be sure to go into your "My Controls" area and update your email with the new one. Our policy is to delete accounts when this happens (I've seen some old accounts generate dozens of bounces a day), so it is important to update your email here if it has changed.

Take care,

Scott

Last night the sight was down, today I got back on, but it made me re-registar to post anything. Could this have to do with me getting rid of the original email account I used to registar the first time? Hmmm.... :blink: Julie

Yes, please read through this topic--your email was bad and was bouncing back notifications.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
