    E-mail Formatting Changed -- for the worse

    in Website

    Posted

    Email formatting is a puzzlement for sure.

     

    I just checked my profile. I still have the box checked that says to send emails in html format. Does this mean the emails that I send to other cachers through gc.com or emails that gc.com sends to me?

     

    I use Entourage for receiving most of my email on my mac. Until this recent round of updates by gc.com, all worked fine. Now, I receive a message that seems devoid of line breaks. The message appears in a very small, generic font. I have difficulty determining which link is for the log, the cache and the profile of the gc.com person who sent the cache announcement to me. When I do click, since everything is so small and close together, I often get the wrong link anyway. I will soon have the reviewer's profile memorized.

     

    However, if I use Horde as my email client, or check my mail with my gmail account, the message has line breaks, the font is larger and more legible, and I have no difficulty with the email at all.

     

    The problem must be in some command or special character that was in the header of the sent email prior to the updates that is no longer there.

     

    I hope this gets repaired. As of today, it is still broken for Entourage on my mac. I am running OS 10.4 on an Intel based MacBook Pro. My Entourage is version 10.0

    SNEAK PEEK! Aargh!

    We hope to be able to stop by on our way north to the Adirondacks.

     

    Do we reserve a coin here, pay for it ahead of time, or will there be a sale table where we can purchase at the event?

     

    Thanks.

     

    OK, just went to the listing for the event and read through the notes. Found the answer there. Hope we get there in time to get at least one coin.

    Icons

    Just adding another note about missing icons. Ours has been AWOL for at least two days. Also, when looking at the list of completed caches in My Account, instead of any icon at all, even a generic one, we just have text with the name of the geocoin or TB where one would expect the icon. This is just to the right of the cache icon, that green or amber box telling you whether it is a regular cache or a multi.

     

    This seems to be the case for our personal coin (wigoweb), the red handed coin, and the 2007 Red Jeep TB. Other coins and TBs seem to be displaying ok.

     

    Also, we liked that feature which kept the date on a previous date once it was set when we were logging caches from several days earlier. Having it revert to the current date each time a cache is logged is not an improvement.

     

    Thanks

    We recently received our personal coin for Wigoweb. It is a for trade only except for ones we drop in caches.

     

    We would be interested in trading with you if you have your coin made.

    Are you a Geocoin Chick?

    We're planning on trading one of our WIGOWB chicks with anyone we didn't get to trade with at GW5. If you have your own chick and want to trade for a WIGOWB chick, just contact us through this list or send an email through our profile.

     

    Our real geocaching name is WIGOWEB, but we didn't have that many letters for the chick coins.

     

    We will probably drop most of the rest of the coins in caches in NJ, NY, PA, and VA (near Williamsburg).

     

    Great project and great event.

    Ever give a coin to a non-cacher?

    Gave the silver SCGA coin to a friend who lives in Charleston and always asks if we have found any new treasures.

     

    Gave a different SC 2007 coin to friends in Myrtle Beach. They have cached with us in NY, SC and VA. They keep saying they are going to get their own GPS. We may go to the GPS Store just over the NC/SC border on our next trip there and help them to select a GPS.

     

    Our grandson has about 10 coins he has admired that were in our collection.

     

    One of our sons is a jeeper, and he has received several jeep coins.

     

    One son and a daughter-in-law are both nurses. We gave them nurse coins.

     

    Our granddaughters like flowers and butterflies, so they get to pick and choose from our collection. They seem to enjoy going "treasure hunting" with us.

     

    We were notified today that our personal coin will ship to the states from the mint around May 15. Once we have our own Wigoweb coin, we will likely give some of them to some of our muggle friends, too.

    My son has been building and destroying and rebuilding jeeps for some time. He loves to ford streams and slide down hills

    Really great coin. We hope to win this one. Then, we plan to purchase several more once they become available.

     

    Thanks.

    These arrived more quickly than some of the coins we have ordered within the US. Placed order on April 1. Received coins in south Jersey from France today, April 7.

     

    No problems with the packaging. Coins are very nice. Glad we managed to order before they were all gone.

     

    Thank you
