"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

sj,

have you tried to access it through m.gmail.com? That's the mobile version. If you can access it through that, go to the bottom of the page and click "basic html" link and see if that works. If it does, I wonder if the chat element is fucking with your gmail access. Turn that off and see if it all works again.

Thanks, le nubian! The m.gmail.com works as does the basic html link.

Of course now amazon.com won't let me sign back in because it says that cookies are not enabled, which they are.

I just downloaded Firefox and all of the computer problems went away, including my being unable to access Yahoo games which has been going on for months. Bye bye IE.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Tho I have been noticing Gmail loading attachments reallllllllly s-l-o-w. Glad to hear it's all ok now. Ya, Firefox is so much better. I urge you to try the plug in for Adblock. You can stop vast majority of annoying banner ads that annoy you (well, at least they annoy me).

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Does anyone know how to make an email distribution list in outlook out of about a thousand emails I have in an excel file?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

The only way I can see is to export the spreadsheet to a text file, then import the text file into your address book, and then create the distribution list from your address book.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Apparently it can be easily done: In Microsoft Outlook, how can I import address information from an Excel workbook into my Contacts list?

I just found that and printed it out!

Whoot!

Google. Who knew? Besides everyone but me.

Also, here's instructions on how to do it Tom Scola's way: [link]
