How can we tell if person we want to contact is still using email given to GR will they be bounced back and will GR tell us? It may just be this person isnt interested how I wish people would reply even if its just to say ******* off dont bother me have had one of those also from an actual relation. chose your friends not your rellies comes to mind. This person has HOWE relations on site that I am sure are my mothers stepbrother & wife. anyway before you all forget my question and fall asleep any answers? sandra

Unfortunately, it depends on your/their ISP provider as to whether or not an undeliveable piece of mail is bounced back or not. It's not always a feature used by all ISP's. Judy
