Email Alerts

[alfredus]

Am I the only one who is not getting any Email alerts any more?

Would love to get them back, if possible - @Monsta_AU ???

Your mail provider is bouncing the emails to your address. If you update it to another provider it will likely work.

There appears to be a few users with this issue. Not sure why at this stage.

Works now a treat again...

 

[Monsta_AU]

Yes, I am trying to force them through. It might just be a volume of threads you are subscribed to.

 

[alfredus]

Ah...is there a way to see a list of the threads I am subscribed to?

Watched Threads shows me only UNREAD threads that I am watching, no all of them...

I just direct them all straight to trash (I use gmail for the shave forums for this reason) with the exception of BST forum..that way I get the alerts needed without having to muck around with boxes on each post.

AGAIN for you as well @SpeedyPC :

watched THREADS shows only UNREAD watched threads, not all of them

I have no issue with them, seems like my mail provider does with the Volume of Emalls I was getting...I started to un-watch some sub-forums, let's see how this works...

It would be still great to have a list of ALL watched threads @Monsta_AU - not only the unread ones.

It would be also good I think, not to automatically watch every thread you post in etc. in the Forum settings - rather the other way round???

There is a link that you have half cut off in the bottom of the screenshot - 'Show all watched threads'

Click on your name to the left of your PM messages > Preferences > Center of the screen 'Automatically watch threads that you create or when you reply...'

Thanks - just unwatched all threads...but haven't been getting Emails again yesterday/today?

 

[Monsta_AU]

If you have unread them, then you can expect to get less anyway.

There is still a number of rejected emails there from your account.... I am wondering if there is some sort of issue with teh volume you were getting, or possibly that particular service going down for a period of time.

Our email relay has no issues itself, unless our email was going out a blacklisted IP at the time. I am keeping an eye on things and will consider my options over time, but I may be able to deal with this better in the next 2-3 months.
