This is very funny! A post about the hoax of snopes and email tracking that is a hoax itself!

I had wondered if it was a hoax but I don't really know how to use snopes LOL

but my sister and father are ones that continually forward on CRAP ... everything they get they forward SO... I get it TWICE lol. but they just won't stop sending it so now I just automatically delete them without looking

At least my mom only forwards me things she knows I will find funny

You just go to the site, click the top 25 hoaxes and that will give you the list of the most current circulating hoaxes. That usually covers alot of the emails you'll get.

If that doesn't, just type in a few key words from the email into the search box in the upper right corner of the page. That will give you a list that is likely to have the email you're looking for. Key words that work best are names of people, places, or businesses from the email you're looking up.

I type a few key words from the email into my search engine (Google) and click on the search....and that turns up a lot, too!
