Default Emails disappearing!

Some emails i send never seem to reach their destination, there is no error
message (although with one person i get a return messaged "deleted before
being read") and they dont bounce back undelivered, they just seem to
disappear into thin air! My kids could have messed about with settings but
id have no idea what they could have done - does anyone have any possible
cause or remedy for this?
many thanks

If you send an email to yourself is there anything strange added to it?

Answer in newsgroup. Don't expect an answer to email.

Default Emails disappearing!

If some e-mails make it OK, there is probably nothing wrong on your end.
The messages are mostly being filtered as spam on the recipient's end
(their mail service or the PC).

If you have some other way to contact these people, make sure that you
have the correct e-mail address for them. You might be using an
obsolete one that they no longer read, or have a typo in it and it's
going to someone else.

The one person that you get returned mail on is definitely filtering on
their end.

Take a look at:
OLEXP: Description of Read Receipts in Outlook Express
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=240915
If you've set to ask for Read Receipts, try turning that off. It might
be that the recipients are filtering on that and considering it spam.
