Firstly, bouncing can be potentially risky for you (and others) and is generally discouraged by most countries and/or your ISP (Internet Service Provider.)

If (like me) you're unaffected with the above risks and are savvy enough to insulate others - then, read on.

Which account are you trying to bounce from - for example, Gmail, Yahoo! etc., etc?

Did you try bouncing across your own accounts to cross-check whether the root of the issue is in the bounce-sending or the bounce-receiving - for all that you know the person who is supposed to receive your bounce might possibly be subscribed to an account which filters and dismisses bounces?

Are you fully conversant with performing the Bounce action - check out the step-by-step illustrations at the following links (sorry, they are in French - but, it's still possible to easily grasp the essence):--

• Marking message/s to be bounced

• Using the Bounce function

Hi TF,

Thank you for you help I did trying send a message and then bouncing it back and it did bounce from my 1st computer but I did not receive it back at my second computer also different email address.

But as you say "the person who is supposed to receive your bounce might possibly be subscribed to an account which filters and dismisses bounces?" this could be the reason

Many email providers will not allow "bounce" messages in their system. Some will even shut your account down for repeated use. There is a great risk for them receiving floods of messages from an irate spammer. The impact on their operation is not worth the effort.

I strongly suggest that you use the Reporting functions for true Spam, Auto Delete with a Filter for messages from an ex or other single undesired individual(s).
