After a couple years of
searching, in October of 2006 I at last found a full-time job.
While I'm glad to be there and enjoy the perks of being gainfully
employed, the job has diminished the time I can spend on JABB. So
I created this page to deal with some questions I regularly get from
members. If you have a question, please check here first.
Welcome Newbies!
is also a great resource, even if you're not a newbie. If you do
not find your answer or are still confused then please contact me.
Please feel free to email me any time just to talk. I by no means
mind those emails and enjoy hearing from my members. My hopes
with creating this page are only to deal with technical-type questions
that I get asked repeatedly. If you have a question you feel
should be listed here, please let me know. Thanks!
God bless,
Jenni- JABB Co-founder

4. Who do I contact in the event of technical problems with the YahooGroup?
The moderators can't really do
anything in the event of technical problems like delayed email
messages. If you experience this you can contact Yahoo! Customer
Care here:
http://add.yahoo.com/fast/help/us/groups/cgi_feedback
It would be a good idea to inform the rest of the YahooGroup that you have done so. Perhaps if multiple people write, matters will get fixed sooner. If you absolutely cannot get any emails to post to the YahooGroup, contact me (Jenni).

do I contact in the
event of some personal
problem that effects JABB (i.e. I have an emergency and need someone
here to know, another member is causing problems for you offlist, etc.)?
Contact me and I
will get back to you just as soon as I can. In the event that I
am offline for an extended period of time, information will be provided
about who you can contact in my absence. If you have an issue
with another
member, please briefly describe the issue to me. If I need
further information I will let you know. Do NOT post to the YG
about the problems you are experiencing with another member.
2. I have news related to John Dye or
"Touched by an
Angel" or
related. How do I pass it on?First, please check the JABB News and
Reminders page to make sure we don't all ready know. If it
truly is news, I will get back to you and ask you to please share the
news with the JABB YahooGroup if you are a member. I will also
post it on the JABB News site. However, I will not publish
anything unless reliable sources can back it up. I will also not
publish rumors about TBAA cast members' personal lives and would
discourage the discussion of such rumors on the YG.
3. How do I submit
something for a JABB
newsletter?Contact me and I
will let you know if we can use your idea/work on JABB. Please
keep in mind JABB newsletters should NOT feature gratuitous violence,
excessive foul language, or explicit sex scenes We do
have other stipulations in regards to content and may not be able to
accept all material. You can read more about those stipulations
on Contribute
to JABB. When in doubt, just ask!
4. I'm trying to get another JABB
member's email
address.
How do I do that?If you are a member of the YG,
you can copy their email address right out of the To: field in any
emails they send to the YG. I do not give out the email addresses
of members. If you cannot obtain their email address in that way,
I will contact them for you and ask them if it would be okay to give
you their email address or I will ask them to contact you.
I respect the privacy of all JABB members and this is why members'
email addresses are closely guarded.
1. How do I get an onthisside.net email
address?You must be a member of the
JABB YahooGroup to be eligible for an onthisside.net account. I
am the only one able to set up an email account for you so you must
contact me. Please tell me what you would like the email address
to be. In the event I am offline for an extended period of time
you will have to be patient. By setting up an onthisside.net
account, you agree:
2. How do I get to onthisside.net
webmail?~to clean it out every month
and more often if requested. If you use the account with Webmail,
this means emptying the Sent, Trash, Spam, and Inbox folders on a
regular basis.
~to save the email I send you with your account name, initial password, and other vital information. This is not something I can be resending you every time you want to access your account. You must save this information somewhere you will remember it.
~to use the account in a way that is respectful of others. Spamming and flaming with the account is absolutely forbidden.
~that I can access the account at any time if I have reason to believe it is being misused.
I reserve the right to decline your request for an email
address or delete the account if you fail to properly maintain it or
use it for purposes not in keeping with the spirit of JABB. If at
any time you decide you do not want the account, please let me know
immediately.~to save the email I send you with your account name, initial password, and other vital information. This is not something I can be resending you every time you want to access your account. You must save this information somewhere you will remember it.

A. Our webmail is hosted
by 1&1.com. So you must go to their webmail site here:
https://webmailer.perfora.net/
If you plan to use webmail often I would suggest bookmarking that address.
B. Simply enter your email address (i.e. jenni@onthisside.net) and password.
C. Click Login.
3. How do I add a webmail account to
Outlook/Incredimail/other email clients?https://webmailer.perfora.net/
If you plan to use webmail often I would suggest bookmarking that address.
B. Simply enter your email address (i.e. jenni@onthisside.net) and password.
C. Click Login.
The benefit of using your
onthisside.net with an email client is that you do not have to worry
about cleaning out the webmail folders (except the Spam folder on
occasion). Since the email is being
downloaded onto your computer, it will not be using up any of JABB's
space.
1&1 has provided this FAQ page. Simply locate your email client and follow their step-by-step instructions. You will need the information (account name, servers, etc.) contained in the email I sent you after your account was set up.

4. How
do I clean out my webmail?
The simplest way is to, once
you've logged into webmail, go into the folder you want to clean
out. Go to the Folder pull down menu. Select Empty.
This will permanently delete everything in that folder.
If you are only wanting to delete certain messages, click the lil box in front of the messages you want to delete. Click Delete on the bar above your message list. This will send those messages to the Trash folder. When messages begin to pile up in Trash, you will need to delete them from the Trash folder also.
