Often this filtering is provided by our internet service providers with little or no imput from us. While this has in most cases dramatically reduced the volume of junk mail that has been appearing in our inboxes, sometimes legitimate e-mail is incorrectly identified as junk mail and deleted before it reaches us. As those of you who have been working with me realize, I routinely respond to incoming e-mail within 24 hours (usually much quicker...). If you have not received a response to messages that you have sent within 24 hours, please notify me using my regular online course e-mail address <bjost@josts.net> with a CC (carbon copy) to my backup e-mail address which is <bobjost@fresno.edu>. If you still do not receive a response, please call and leave a message on my answering machine <559.495.1919>. It is strongly suggested that you use the exact message titles indicated in the assignment prompts. Junk mail filters are often set to delete messages sent without a message title or with a generic message title (Hi, Hey, Hello, Re: Fwd: etc.) It is also most helpful if you include your name somewhere in the body of the e-mail message, especially if your e-mail address does not include elements of your name.
