Good e-mail account

What are you guys using for email accounts? I have dial up at this point (hope to get wireless soon, but can't count on it yet).  Tell me some of the good, bad, and ugly of what you are using.  I have Outlook Express now and find it very annoying. TIA

My friend who works for them is having her mail go to her own account. She hates this new mail prog

Good info here. As for the mail........sm
I just write "refused" on the envelope and put it right back into the mail. It may take a couple of times for them to get the message, but they will take you off their list if you do this.
Good dictators only on that account . . .
I get plenty of the stinkers, just like we all do. The accounts I don't share, and sometimes dread, are often short reports filled with lots of dead air in the sound file. They are also 90% ESLs. So don't think I skim off the cream. I don't.

I'm just saying it is impossible to cherry pick an account of all good dictators.

I work my butt off to make it. I'm not sitting here taking only the "good stuff" and leaving the crud for other MTs.
Is 13 cpl a good rate for clinic account?...nm
ss
I hear that every day from my account. Awesome feeling isn't it. Good for you
I hope you realize your hard work is appreciated after all!


Starting pay is 6 cents a line, fairly good account stability.
I had lots of ESLs. Benefits are okay. They have a new, stricter QA policy in place with new compensation, hard to get a 98 or above as it is by the BOS. It was okay, but couldn't make any decent money. Need to be a super high producer.
For this account, I charge 0.12 cpl. It is very easy clinic stuff with good dictators, but ...

I also do tapes which are horrible so I'm considering upping my line rate especially if all this aggravation keeps up.  When I first took the work, I thought I was being fair because the work was so easy, but then they asked me to do tapes and then work specific hours, print and deliver work three times a week.  I wish I would have addressed more than TAT and line rate in the original contract.  I do charge them a $5 per delivery fee because of gas prices, but still I think I'm getting the shaft.


Oh well, live and learn.  I am negotiating for a local doctor's office here in my hometown, small one doctor office, and I'm here to tell you I will be negotiated every little detail right down to paper and toner charges!


Request that they place a stop payment on the check, reissue, and mail priority or overnight mail
If they refuse or invent unbelievable excuses, you'll know you have a problem. If MY check was a week late, there are many months I would be in deep trouble.
I realize checks occasionally do get lost in the mail. If they are 100% sure it was mailed, then they shouldn't mind issuing another.

Be firm and be persistent.
In every company I have worked for that pays via mail, they mail the checks on payday. sm
Depending on the distance you can get them anywhere from 3-8 days later. Right now one takes 3 days, the other 3-5.

My mail carrier just informed me that the mail is sorted by
prisoners as part of their work.  Now do you feel safer and more secure?  
Block her E-mail, return mail unopened

On AOL I can determine who I want to receive mail from and block those I do not  -- and if they are blocked  they get their E-mail back as being "undeliverable".  If she sends things out -- send back --unaccepted.  But to be simple just E-mail her back or call the recuriter if you don't want to deal with her directly and state -- leave me alone.  If she is in another state you should not be scared of her but you may simply have to put it out there in no uncertain terms.


What is the difference between an acute care account and a multispecialty account??..nm
nm
I've never had a problem switching from account to account.
The problem I had was being switched too soon. If I don't get one account spec solidly in my memory with QA feedback on mistakes before starting another, I get confused. The other problem I had with former jobs was inconsistent QA. One person tells you one thing, another person tells you another.

Lately, I don't have a problem with it. Right now, my binder has 8 account specs (some I've never had to use) and I'm picking up a new weekend job for a while. The terminology and report formats stay basically the same. It's just all those little preferences. LOL
I'm getting e-mail and personal mail from MQ regarding changes
and lawsuits.   What's up with MQ?  Any speculation?  My mail is general and not specific to my office.  Think things are coming to a head with the lawsuits and MQ is trying to play nice?
what is your account and specialty on the account?
no one is watching. tell us all about osi.
That is a good offer. Pay is not that good at UIMC. Good luck! nm

MQ mail
I got it to work but it takes forever to get into your email box and send anything.  I got into my box yesterday..slow..slow.slow..Today I got in and tried to send an email to my Transcription Coordinator and two times it would not go through, finally the third time it did..I dont know why they changed the system..maybe some techs needed something new to do so they made a new project to change the email system.  If they dont fix it, it is a disaster..Hopefully today, the first day, will be just fixing the minor things and we will proceed from there..Its always something with this company ya know??  No work, but you better let them know your schedule, cant even get through on email..Grrrrrrrr..
MQ E-mail
I am just giving up.  I get it and try to keep it open so I can check it but it won't stay opened.  I am going to check it once a day.  If they want me, they can phone.
E mail I mail
I wonder if we can just communicate with work people with our private E-mail instead of this system.
MQ I-Mail.

I can't get past the login screen.  It says "Welcome!" then throws me back to the login screen.  I see they have a message that says "You can still send messages to your contacts through your Outlook or Outlook Express."  Wrong.  Can't do that, either.  Have been on hold to Atlanta for over 1/2 hour.  Whose idea was this??


MQ Mail

Log in using your I-mail address and your password.  I-mail address should be your MQ name (?)__@medquistmail.com.  Password.  You get into a screen that apologizes etc.  Hit continue. 


If you forgot anything there is a box that should allow you to retrieve password. 


If all else fails, call tech support and they will walk you through it as I did the first time using it at 1-800-342-8283.  They can help you specifically for I-mail problems.

I can help you with that - e-mail me. sm
Certainly do not want to post specifics on a board.
E-Mail. (SM)
If you use the Reply By E-Mail option in your post, whoever e-mails you will not see your e-mail address whatsoever.

Once that e-mail arrives to your mail server, you will see who it came from and if you reply to their e-mail, they will see yours -- it will work as regular e-mail.

Does that help?

I sent an e-mail
with a link to Productivity Talk board.
It will come to you in the mail. (sm)
It always takes over a month to come. Save up for it because you will back-pay to cover the time to keep your coverage. In other words, I think you basically pay 2 months at once. But do call the person in charge of benefits at the job you left. They explain COBRA all the time and will be sending it to you.
