Can't send emails to own address
 
Since 10.3.1, I am unable to send emails from my Q10 to my own email address.

This is most often a problem if I am replying to an email and want to include myself as a Bcc: in order to have a copy on my PC, nothing ever arrives. Emails to any other address all seem to arrive OK.

But I have discovered that if I try and send a simple email to my own address, it doesn't get sent, it just sits in the hub with the red 'Message could not be sent' icon beside it.

I have tried what I thought was the obvious stuff, like deleted and adding my email and resetting my BB ID, but it still happens. Is sending 'service books' still a useful fix with BB10?

Perhaps I'm being too obvious, but don't you get a copy of the email in your Sent folder?

I've found the problem; I was doing exactly the same as I was doing previously, ie my Q10 'suggests' my email address, so I just hit the suggestion to enter it rather than type it in.

I can see that with 10.3.1 my 'suggested' email address is surrounded by quote marks (ie 'biggles@email.com' instead of biggles@email.com), which it is reading as an invalid address (though it didn't tell me that....). If I type it in correctly, the email is sent fine.

I saw the quote marks but paid no attention, as they appear in my Office Outlook emails often and have no effect.
