What is the problem(s) associated with this rejection on entry forms? At first, I thought it was entries I had made that were one-time entries, but now it seems more than that.

Hi saraclare1,
This is hard to answer without more details.
Here are a few things I can think of ~
~~Occasionally, a sweeps will say that it does not accept certain emails, like hotmail or yahoo, for example. This is an exception, and not the usual case.
~~Did you double check your email address? If you are using a form filler, or copying and pasting, make sure you don't have anything like an extra space or extra "."
Hopefully other people will add their ideas and you will figure it out.

Thanks, artupp3
It has happened on a couple contests lately. I have a gmail I use for contests. It has been rejected by contests that say daily entry. The email appears correct without extra dots or the like. Not sure what it is. Any input is appreciated.

Will do. Thanks. P.S. Someone has told me to try using a different browser too. Going to do that here shortly.

Interesting. Using IE, without autofill, I completed one of the entries with no problem.

Okay. One worked with IE but the other site did not. So, I am thinking the reasons are different. For one, it was the autofill....I believe.

I tried everything to get it to work on Googlechrome...tabbing through....you name it! I guess I had to go and manually turn the autofill off (on some Googlechrome tools or something). It was automatic and I would not- not use it without turning it off somewhere else.
saraclare1 - I've found that when I post I'm having a problem to the comments under a sweeps that THEN others will post they too have problems, or they did, and how they resolved it, so try posting there too.
As to issues with sweeps forms, there are many reasons for them:
It *could* be that you have a popup blocker that blocks it, or Maybe you should update?
