eMail notification failure? (general)

Nils Ruwisch · Oct 25, 2009

Hi,

saw the other thread concerning this topic but I have another problem (it is not only me).
I do not receive any mail notification. I tried different mail addresses and checked the spam folders of the accounts.
I am not getting notified neither when using the "forgotten password" function nor when using the "notify me when I receive a PM" (instant notification activated). A buddy of mine has the same problems.
Did we overlook something?

Thanks a bunch
Nils

Hello

Same problem.

I received several emails some minutes ago, it's about answer of 3 days ago.
I looked for the best forum-place to explain this problem and I saw your message

Nevertheless I also activated the "instant notification".
I noticed this problem for approximately 15 days, I thought that it was a temporary problem thus I had said nothing previously

Alek.

I also received some notification mails now.
Let's hope the problem is fixed now.

I checked and I dont seem to have any issues? (just send an email to yourself from RD). I get it right away? Anyone else has that problem?

ihave NEVER gotten e-mail notification from Day 1. Have instant notification selected yet never receive anything.

Been so long I have just grown used to it I guess.

And you have filled in your want to receive mails and provided a working emailaddress?

Eric Nelson · Dec 14, 2009

LOL Bram. you and I went a loooong way on this back when. No joy my man. YOu had said that COMCAST was troublesome for some reason.

I have selected instant e-mail notification and use the saem addy I Have had for years now.

Dunno why it doesn't work, and honestly, doesn't matter anymore for me I have become used to just checking in periodically.

EDIT; looked in my list of subscriptions and see that NONE of them have a check mark in the "instant notifcation" box. hhhmmmmm

When I checked my options control in USER CP I found "instant notification " selected. The text says I can set up 'Automatically subscribing" to any thread I view but can;t find where to check that option.

can ya point a brother to the spot please?
