I am getting hundreds of e-mails everyday from Mail Delivery System, all returned e-mails that I have never sent. Why?
  Most probably your system is infected with virus. Latest viruses send e-mails without your knowledge forging Sender and Recipient and bounces go to the Sender/Reply To mentioned in the email. You must scan your system with latest anti-virus software and upgrade your email client to the latest version. You should read the return mails to find out the reason.
   
In order to have a proof for having sent a mail from my computer, how to send IP address of my machine also along with mail?
  This feature is already there in most of the web mail services today. If you check the headers of a message, you can find sender’s IP Address or the sending SMTP server’s IP Address. Also nowadays, if you send e-mails from yahoo or hotmail or mail4india you may find a header X-Originator: IP Address or Received from: IP Address to find the IP address of the sender. If sender is behind the proxy/firewall, it shows the IP Address of the proxy server/firewall.

I want to keep a copy of all my e-mails on the server. How do I go about it?
  This can be done using the options available in your e-mail client. For example in Microsoft Outlook Express, this option can be set under Tools->Accounts->Properties->Advanced. Please don’t forget to delete e-mails from the server time to time in order to maintain your mailbox under 20 Mega Bytes.
   
While reading my emails, on some messages, I can see junk characters and the message size too is big. Why?
  This is most probably a virus infected email attachment, which webmail didn’t encode and displayed it in text format. You must delete such mails and ask sender to resend it in zip format if it is important.
   
Why am I getting an alert inside my e-mails “Note: Some scripting found in side this mail and it is not being executed to avoid 'Cross Site Scripting vulnerability'"?

By default, we stop the execution of such scripts. If you want you can enable it , you can do so at your own risk from OptionsàPersonal Settings.
   
I am getting new messages in the middle of the page instead of top of the page when my inbox is sorted date wise. Why?
  A folder is sorted in two ways 1) Sender’s Date wise and 2) Delivery Date wise and we can choose ascending or descending from personal settings. In case it is sorted date wise, it means sender’s date wise so if sender’s system date is not correct then the message will always be placed on top. So to avoid such problem always use Delivery-Date wise sorting which is also the default one.
   
Can I download the FOLDERS I created in my web mailbox?
  Yes, you can download all the folders. For downloading Inbox, you will need to use your e-mail client such as Netscape or Outlook Express. Rest of the folders can be downloaded directly from Folders ->downloads link. These folders can be viewed using Netscape Messenger (even while off line). To do so, store these folders in Netscape’s mail storage directory. For example: for Windows NT: they can be stored in C:\Program Files\Netscape\Users\default\Mail and when you start Netscape messenger after copying those folder files in the desired location, you can see your webmail folders. Using Outlook Express, you can import from Netscape folders.
   
How many files can I attach in one message and what is the maximum attachment size allowed?
  You can send maximum of three files in one message but total size of the attachment(s) should not exceed 5 MB.
   
An e-mail has arrived into my mailbox. I can neither delete this mail nor download it. What should I do?
  Most probably you’ve got a big attachment. Login to mail4india.com and delete it permanently (select check box near “Delete” button) in order to easily download your other messages.
