How do I tell if my email was sent?

Question

I sent an email to my internet friend, and it said when I sent it "problem sending email, please try again."
But usually when it does that (it has done it before) it sends them the email twice when I send it again.

So I looked in my sent box, and it said that it was sent, so I assumed that it was.

But my friend never replied, and he usually always replies really soon.

I don't know if he is just not replying, or if it really didn't send.

So if it's in the Sent box, does that ABSOLUTELY mean that it sent? Should I send it again?

That would suck if he's just not replying. D:

Help!??

I'm using AOL, btw

Answer 1

That's what you get for using AOL ...Just joking...

If the SENT box tells you that it was sent than it was. The only other way would be to enter your e mail address also when you e mail than you would know for sure. Or simply ask your friend if she got it.

There are also settings where your e mail provider will send you a message to tell you exactly IF and When any one open your mail.

Good luck

Answer 2

once it's in your sent box it's sent.. check the email address make sure it's correct... if u feel like sending it again go ahead no big deal if you send it twice :)

Answer 3

The easiest way to solve this problem is to get a sender report, whereby the user has to click receipt of email before they can see what the email is.

Answer 4

It sounds like it was sent if its in the sent box.

Or maybe you have the wrong email address?

Or just wait :P

Answer 5

My bet would be that you have a typographical error in the email address that you sent it to.
