OT Help with WebTv & a Senior User
My Foxy (dog) belonged to a sr. who is now at an assisted living home. She's got WebTV but I cannot get an email through to her. Today I took Foxy to visit and while I was there I asked her to turn it on and send me an email. I hope that will blast the spam blocker she's got - if that is the problem. I'll just respond to it. I'd like to be able to send her pictures a few times a week of the dog.
Any ideas if that does not work?

I am not sure, but I have a friend who I have tried to send pictures to and they never make it. Web TV was bought by msn.com, but I don't think that they have done too much to improve it from what it was several years ago, and I think that files that are too large by 5 or 10 year old standards get rejected. Whenever I send him a regular email, it gets through. He too is a senior citizen. I have not really reseached the issue though.

Do you know if WebTv can surf the internet...click on a link?

I know this sounds silly, but if you can get emails through but not photos, send emails from Foxy, tell former Mom what Foxy has been doing. Pictures you can leave with her, day-to-day details are fun to read when Foxy's not there.

Let me know if you can click and see without a password requirement. One never knows for sure until another computer tries.
Thanks, Marlene...I will take your suggestion. I think it's very accurate and valid.
