    Default Not receiving email notifications

    I've posted in a couple of threads recently and I am not receiving email notifications of replies. I have checked that my email address is correct and that notifications is turned of and all appears to be correct. Anyone else having this issue?

    GJ, if you have notifications turned OFF you obviously won't get notifications.

    Sorry, typo, should read ON.

    I'm not that stupid to think I would receive notifications if I had them turned OF.

    Read through the thread and I haven't changed my email address and nothing in my junk folder.
    The last notification I received was from you Fred on the 29/10/2015 at 9:31AM regarding the "bloody hypocrites" thread.

    Fred, I did not get an email update to https://www.woodworkforums.com/showth...=200143&page=2 after FF's reply.

    I seem to remember this might have happened a few times before and I never bothered following it up.

    I haven't been getting email notifications of PM's. I guess this is the issue you are talking about? This has only been happening over the past few weeks.

    I have put in a request for Steven to have a look at this problem.

    Aldav yours should be working now as I have enabled the "Instant email notification" section in your registration which was switched off, also fixed a few other things that were switched off.

    Anyone else not getting email notifications of replies to subscribed threads and/or PM's?

    If so, please say so here and let us know:


    • When you first noticed they weren't coming through.
    • Is it only subscribed thread notifications you aren't getting or PM notifications as well?
    • Your email provider... eg: hotmail, gmail, bigpond, etc
    • Has there been a recent upgrade to your computer or programs, etc. Auto or manual.
    • Anything else you think may be relevant - Including change of email address.


    Answer as many of the above as you can and that information might help us to track down the problem.

    Cheers - Neil

    It is a total blackout now.

    I seem to recall it might have started in a random fashion some weeks ago.

    I can't comment on PM's as I get so few of them

    Bigpond

    No recent changes that I recall

    Thanks for your efforts Neil.

    Chris I sent you a test PM.

    The problem is certainly not universal as I am getting email notifications as per usual.

    Just my luck, stuff always happens to me, I can't think of any changes or reasons it might be happening at my end. I am using Win 7 with Thunderbird for email. As always, thanks.

    I just checked my inbox on the Bigpond server and it is not holding any unread messages so Thunderbird has collected all available so no joy there.
