    I don’t think I did either… :(

    Can you tell me what email address it came from? Maybe I scan run a search and see if it went to spam.

    I just sent my first email to her this morning! :) I hope she gets piles of letters from all her D-Cot pals!


    @BacksideOfWater
    and @sarajoe37, this is what the email I got from Write2Them says (and the email address it came from is info@write2them.org):

    Welcome to Project Write2Them!
    It just got easier to stay in touch with Chloe while at basic training/boot camp. Project Write2Them is a nonprofit organization that turns email into letters from home™. Jon Kirk has given you access to this cost-free service, so you may now send emails to Chloe Kirk at any time, from anywhere — and Chloe will receive a postmarked letter at the basic training or boot camp address.

    How does it work?

    Send emails any time, from anywhere. Simply email chloe.kirk@write2them.org from your computer or smartphone, and Project Write2Them takes care of the rest. Letters get mailed daily via the U.S. Postal Service, and you get notification when your email is included in a letter to Chloe.
    Send emails as often as you like. Project Write2Them provides this service to help improve the morale of new military members by making sure their name gets called during “mail call”. The more frequently you send emails to Chloe, the more letters we mail out and the busier “mail call” gets.
    Share pictures by attaching image files (.gif, .jpg, .png) to your emails that fit within the 5MB size limit per message. Please make sure that all pictures are in good taste so that Chloe stays out of trouble.
    Personalize your messages with a profile picture of yourself. Just email the photo you would like to use to mypic@write2them.org, and we will print it in each letter next to the emails you send. You can change the photo as often as you like.
    We hope you make use of this service to keep in touch with Chloe. There is absolutely no cost to you, and your email address will not be sold to or shared with any third party.

    As a nonprofit organization, Project Write2Them relies on donations to provide this service to new service members, their families and friends. Please visit http://www.write2them.org/donate to see how you can help.

    So I just opened my email first time today, and guess what was third email in from today, the info@write2them.org email. I spoke too soon!

    I sent an email to that address and it bounced back as undeliverable :(

    @backsideofwater Did you happen to PM her your email address before she left? She has to have cleared you in order for it to work, and she doesn’t have access at this point.

    If you are comfortable with it, maybe you can arrange to email someone else in this group who is able to send to her and they could copy it into an email and send on your behalf for you. I am happy to do this for you when I return from my trip. But if you want to send something sooner, you might ask someone else.

    So how do you know if you’ve been excepted to send emails? I sent my email on this thread not via a PM.

    You needed to message @starbee so that she put you on the list.

    I sent my first email yesterday and this morning got an email that they’re sending out my mail to her today! How exciting! :D

    @Jloosh78, I think the way you know if you’ve been accepted to send emails is when you get the email from Write2Them saying that you’ve been given access.


    @BacksideOfWater
    , and anyone else who doesn’t have access right now, I’d be happy to forward any messages you have for Chloe to her through Write2Them! If you’d like, you can send me a PM with the message you’d like to send and I can forward it to her. Or, I could send her a message asking if there’s any way she can add you to the list of approved email addresses. I’m not sure if she’ll have access to do that, but if not, maybe her husband would be able to.

    I’ll echo what @laprana said! I’m more than happy to pass on messages from anyone who wasn’t able to get registered before she left. :heart:

    Just want to put out the friendly check-in to see if people have written Chloe this week! I also echo what other members have said too! If you didn’t get to send Chloe your email address ahead of time to get on the approved list, you can feel free to send me your message and I will send it to her!

    I know Heather put out a little note last night, but working as a team, here’s a little reminder for all who were cleared to email before Chloe left. She’s a little over a week in and I’m sure would love to receive any notes of encouragement you may have for her.

    @minniec10 just PM any of us above who volunteered to pass along emails to her. laprana, bexruns, eeyorepoohfan, or myself will put what you would like to say in an email to her and let her know it’s from you.
