RE: Transfer e-mail NOT received

[ecs]

You left this information out in your original request for help.  Your initial request makes it seem like it was a client domain that you were experiencing this difficulty.  Easier to help if you give full details.  :)   Glad the information could be of help.  Even following those guidelines, you will still see a lot of cancellations.  Don't know why people bother submitting the transfer request if they are not willing to follow through and respond to the email authorizing the transfers.     -----Original Message----- From: Elliott@ LYregistry.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 17, 2000 10:52 AM To: ecs; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Transfer e-mail NOT received Thanks indeed. However it just happens that I am, myself, the owner, registrant, Admin, etc... of the 2 domain names in question.   I received e-mails for 2 others transfers requested simultaneously but not for these 2!   Mr. Charles Dominato informed me already that I have to wait for the expiry period and resubmit. Thanks anyhow for your guidelines. They will be of help when it comes to custumers transfers.
