No notification emails #2

[BobEllis]

I also stopped receiving notifications of replies. There was a brief period that gmail told people my email address was not valid, I'm guessing that triggered a "do not use" and killed notifications.

Mods, please reset me back among the living. Thanks.

Bob, go to view profile then edit profile and check your settings

 

[BobEllis]

Cal, I have the default notification mode set to "instant notification" Is there someplace else to look?

Thanks,

Bob

Are you getting no notifications at all Bob ? from any thread.

 

[Cal Weldon]

I know it sounds strange but I have found that sometimes if you click any particular setting off and then on again, it resets. Just a suggestion.

 

[BobEllis]

Yes, Mooly, no thread notifications of any kind.

Thought of that, Cal. Had tried that a while back. Yesterday I switched to daily summary and replied to some new threads. Still no notifications.

Is there any other place to change notifications?

I vaguely remember something about if your email gets returned the system stops sending messages to you. That's why I thought there was something in the controls that would allow you to turn me back on. May have been the old software, though.

I'm going to try changing my email address and see what happens.

 

[BobEllis]

That did the trick. I have received a notification for a thread I subscribed to ages ago.

My gmail account must be flagged as bad in the system.

 

[Mooly]

And you have gone into "edit options" under the "User cp" drop down at the top to make sure its set to receive notifications. Very odd.

Try your email change (I did that a while back and it all worked with no hassle)

 

[Mooly]

Lol, excellent

 

[Cal Weldon]

Good news.

Is there a way to get an email notification when somebody has posted a PM? I miss PMs all the time. Is there a Setting that it does the same for PMs as it does for threads, sending me an email, that would be really helpful. Thanks, Joe.

In Browsing Options in your profile.

Cal, your options look very different from anything I've seen here. My setting for email notifications looks like the attached. Setting is found under 'User CP' > 'Edit Options' > scroll to the 'Messaging & Notifications' pane.

Cal = moderator. I suspect moderators have different interface.

 

[Joe Rasmussen]

In Browsing Options in your profile.

Thanks.

 

[Cal Weldon]

I see Joe's is now turned on.

Jason,
Click on your name > View Public Profile > Edit User Profile > right hand side, down to Browsing Options. (is how I did it)

 

[Joe Rasmussen]

I see Joe's is now turned on.

Some say I was 'turned on' in the sixties.
