trying to set up a safe mail account, everything works fine till I get to the section to type in the word or letters in the security box, guys I'not stupid but I can't see any letters or make a word out. I've tried both on iPad and PC and it's still the same? Any suggestions? Stumped?

is there a little audio icon on the side somewhere... most those have an audio thing for the visually impaired!

 
I'll take a look at it again later today. To be honest first one I've never been able to make the text out. I've even squinted like you need to do when looking at 3 d pictures. At first thought it was the Ipad but then tried my lap top, same result, will look again later. thanks for the suggestion.

I second that, Ive usually got to do this a couple of times before I get a captcha that is actually legible and possible for me to read.

 
Hey man hope you don't mind but going to kind of piggy back of this thread and i'm sure it will help you too.. So I noticed the past like 3 days that at least twice safemail has gone down and I am new so not sure if this is a common thing and it happens often and just for short periods of time or it can be indefinite?

I ask because I really don't want to have my main email going down so I can't communicate with vendors during and for my orders and order history!

 
I have had the same problem. I have also read that safe-mail may not be the most secure site either. I think I'm just going to plop down the $ and open a CounterMail account.

In my opinion, that's an excellent decision!

Regardless of what anyone thinks there is no mail server that is 100% safe.. even countermail through Tor, with proxy servers etc! If the Gov wants anything they will get it and word is they cracked Tors servers and I know at any time they can warrant for an IP list of any proxy server!

Only 100% safe way to communicate on the internet these days is with PGP... I suggest everyone learn it and if you are on a PC you have no excuse not to... I understand if your on a Mac cause even myself has a Mac but must use the PC for PGP! Learn it soon, I only wish vendors would seem to care about it!

 
I agree Citystar, and Tor has another key problem with it from a technical end, but I am interested in not making things any easier. I am going on memory here, thin ice, but I'm pretty sure the govt.'s position on proxy activity is that you lose any rights you may (or may not) have as a US citizen by using them. I only try to minimize things, I know true privacy is lost.

 PGP should be second nature to everyone here, but I doubt that it is.

  1. P @ psychedpsych: Have good day people, and I hate texting messages lol
  2. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  3. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  4. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  5. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  6. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  8. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  10. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  11. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!
  12. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  13. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?

  15. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  16. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  17. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  18. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though

  20. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
