Hello all,

Here's a spooky mystery I'm a bit stumped on.

Yesterday I'm sitting at home and my mother-in-law calls and asks me to email here a few photos I'd taken earlier. So I go to iPhoto and pick out the pics and create an email using Mail. I hit send and they go zooming away. I check my sent folder and the email is sitting there like it should.

My mother-in-law says the email arrived. Then, less than a minute later, she says that it was then gone from the inbox.

Strange, I thought. So I sent the email again. Same result . The email arrives in the inbox, then vanishes after a minute.

I'm not believing her at this point. So I go over to their place and sit my computer next to hers.

I send the email, it arrives in her inbox, and then after 60-90 seconds, poof, gone.

We look at each other and start wondering how Big Brother is manipulating her computer in such a manner.

For the past few months, she's complained about emails not arriving but I've alway written it off as a mistake on my part or her part, but now I see it's neither.

Anybody got any ideas on what we could be doing to make this happen?

By the way, we both have MobileMe accounts. Also, this seems to only be affecting emails from my MobileMe account. I have several other email accounts that don't seem to be affected.

Thanks in advance!
