I've told this on myself a couple of other places,

but it's still humiliating (and funny)!

I'd gotten a replacement for my cell, which had worn out after 3 years of use. 

The new ones all had cameras, so that's what I wound up with.  Of course, since it's there, I have to play with it.

The first few shots went to my email effortlessly.  After a week and a dozen shots, though, they weren't showing up anymore!  What could be wrong? 

I called support.  The tech there sent me a pic, it came through fine. 

I went to the local company store and got in line.  20 minutes later I'm explaning to the rep there, she sends me a pic from her phone.  That works. 

I have her use my phone to send a pic to my email.  It doesn't show. 

She gets the manager.  He can't figure it out either.  We've got my email acct on their computer, sending pictures, trying between the three of us to discover the problem. 

Suddenly, a dim light flickers in the back of my skull.  "Excuse me." 

I reach across and click on the SPAM folder..sure enough...so I apologised and left. 

(So why couldn't these so-called professionals figure it out either?????)

Just too obvious, I guess!

We all get caught out like that now and again....believe me, they'll write down a troubleshooting procedure after this. ;)

Oh yeah -- and I was laughing on my way out of the store. It's just.....*shakes head* I shoulda checked that first!

I'm not laughing at you. Really...snort...I'm not! Honest (snicker) I wouldn't do that to...

Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahaha!

(I know I'm going to pay for that later)

What, didn't I tell you about it when it happened?

[jeffs-page.livejournal.com]

Nope. This is the first I heard of it. Did this happen when I was out of the loop with my daily visits to doctors and clinics?

Possibly -- it was well over a year ago.
