I turned on BoxTrapper and entered my own From (me) address on the white list.

Mail that I send myself from yahoo arrives just fine, but mail sent from my Eudora to the web site with my own From (me) disappears...it doesn't show up in the trash nor is it bounced back to my Eudora

Any idea how I can get my BlueHost web mail to accept mail from me so I can include myself in the bcc when I need to?

Thanks

Box Trapper is controversial. Google it to find out about it. Apparently it generates lots of extra internet traffic. I'm surprised BlueHost offers it.

As for the question you asked, you didn't supply enough information. When you send mail from your PC using Eudora, are you sending it to the SMTP server at BlueHost or your ISP? You might have better luck using boxNNN.bluehost.com, where NNN is your server.

You're right ... not enough info...
I'm sending from Eudora SMTP through my ISP, not directly to bluehost web site.

As was pointed out to me, very diplomatically, BoxTrapper is in itself a spammer to all of us unsuspecting individuals who have had our emails counterfieted. So, I've turned off BoxTrapper and will look for better ways to ditch the spam.
