Yes, believe it or not, writing and reading Digital Postcards is a free
service. We get our money from advertising sponsors. That's why you see
those banners on our pages.

A Digital Postcard is a web page that is created when you fill
out and submit the postcard form. You can have a look at our sample postcard. We send an email to the recipient and
she will be informed that a postcard is waiting for her in our post
office. You can even overwrite our standard email message or add some
text of your own.
Contents
Yes, you can select pictures, colors, backgrounds, and music files. You
can even link to any picture and sound on the Web.
Contents
Sure. Just upload the file to our
server before you create your postcard. The upload program will return
your file's new URL. On the postcard program's main form you simply
enter this URL into the "custom image" or "custom sound" field.
Contents
Only the recipient and you can access the postcard file. Of course our
Webmaster could read it too, but you can be sure he's too busy and will
not be willing to read hundreds of postcards every day. Each Digital
Postcard has its own claim check number. It is impossible to view a
postcard without entering this number first and only the sender and the
recipient will know it.
Contents
Our postal clerk discards each postcard two weeks after it has been
written. Sorry, there's no way to recover these postcards. However,
there is a return receipt checkbox in our postcard form. If you activate
it, you will be notified by email when the recipient accesses her
postcard.
Contents
No, up to now we have located all "missing" postcards. There
are several possible reasons why you're not able to find your postcard.
Please send mail to our email robot missing@all-yours.net. for a detailed
explanation.
Contents
You are recycling on this page. This is a browser related problem. You
should access The Digital Postcard with an up-to-date browser like
Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer.
Contents
Our program eliminates possibly malicious code from a postcard before it
is saved on our server. So no-one can annoy you with a JavaScript bomb
in his postcard. Also, "conventional" computer viruses can't
be transmitted with a postcard, because we do not transmit executable
binaries to your computer.
Contents
Yes, you can have your own Digital Postcards. They are very
effective in promoting your Web site because there is a link to it on
each card. Send email to our Digital Postcard autoresponder response@all-yours.net and
you will receive a detailed instruction within just a few minutes.
