Blinking Ebay Messaging -Can You Help?

[ClaryS]

I've sold something to a lovely person in USA and they have asked for my email address so I can send some provenance on the item (pictures and link) Blinking Ebay will not allow me to send the message with an email in the text -I've tried everything I can think of for example (not a real email address) ab thirtythree zero seven at g mail dot com but can't beat the filter -any suggestions its driving me mad!

I had this problem. Do it like this (yourname(..)provider(..)com ) obviously add the @ and .

[Kathyan]

Sorry I meant don't add the @ and .!

Thanks Kathyan, I tried that and they are very clever it would not go through, but I've got past them so for anyone else here's how I did it using the made up email address of [email protected]

alfa(a)bravo(b)3307 at geronimo(g) ma*l dotty comm

ridiculous I know but it went through lol!

Try sending it in pieces in separate emails.

oops posted too late. Glad you succeded. I tried to buy some photographic chemicals on ebay but wasn't allowed to because some silly people used them as skin whiteners. I managed to buy them directly from the supplier by buying another item that I wanted first then I got the email address off the delivery note.
