Send it back e-mails

[Gate Opener]

I get these from some people I know. They send me a forwarded e-mail that usually says mushy type stuff then says to send it back to let them know that I am thinking about them or you will have good luck if you send it out to 8 people, that sort of thing. It seems they always want you to send this thing to everybody you know or a certain # of people, what is that about? I don't do it.

How do you respond to them?

I just don't get it.

I send them off to Spam heaven or trash..

 

[R.T.]

For most of these emails I just delete/trash. If the
sender is a close friend I will send a quick reply back
saying things like "thanks for shareing". I don't want to
hurt a close friend or family members feelings. This is my
way because it works for me.

I delete them, unless they're from my precious niece. Then I tap dance around a little...I think she got the message awhile back. I don't get them from her anymore.

I delete them period. I get way to many emails to respond to something rather generic.

 

[dun]

That's one of the prime reasons for the delete key

 

[L.A.]

I forward them to Gate Opener then delete. ;-)

:lol: :lol: :lol:

 

[Frankie]

I just delete them.

I always send them to 8 or 10 other people. I'm afraid they might put a curse on my puter. Who am I to stop the warm and mushy stuff. You guys are mean.

 

[Hippie Rancher]

If they are REALLY sappy, gross and horrible I forward them to my sister so we can laugh at them, otherwise: DELETE

 

[dun]

I just find it hard to believe that anyone that knows me would send that crap to me!

I just don't get it.

Delete them and sometimes ask the people who send them not to send them to me anymore. If it is one of those mass mailings designed to evoke political views or religious views, I usually send back a comment to the effect that I believe the opposite of whatever view it was that was espoused in the mailing.

 

[Gate Opener]

I hear you dun, same here.

I thought I have already told them in a nice way that I don't respond to those e-mails.

With facts, debunkings from Snopes, and of course hitting "reply all"! (because idiots that send this stuff have no clue how to blind cc)

I don't know 8 - 10 people - so I just delete them and keep going.

 

[Green Creek]

That's one of the ways your email gets out into the wild. Haven't you noticed when those are forwarded that everyone's email is in the address line? I hate those things and like Dun, I cannot imagine anyone I know thinking I would appreciate them.

 

[Calman]

ya'll are just cruel I forward everyone of them and put them in my save file so i can read them again. man they're just great.I always look forward to getting at least 10 a day.
I feel by doing this somewhere someone just might have a good day,or I make someone rich,or i keep some one alive, the list just goes on and on. there's no end to the good these things do. I know, all ya gotta do is read what they say.

I send them all to a Ol' Feller named Dun.

So far I've gotten one dinner at Longhorn
Won the Taliban Lottery
Saw an image of the Virgin Mary
Got kissed by a fat gal.
