Hi all until a few days ago i was getting emails everytime i recieved a u2u or reply to a thread but these seem to have stopped altogether is there a reason for this and how do I turn it back on

yea, they seem to have stopped for me overnight on 21st/22nd.
I know it has happened before and was unpredictable as to when it worked or not :-(

Thanks, that's interesting. My ClamAV (server antivirus email scanner) stopped working sometime on 21st. I turned it off to get around emails not being delivered (the few people that use my email server are savvy enough not to open dodgy attachments) and have not had time yet to figure out what was wrong with it. My guess is that this is related.

Be aware though that the logic is that you will receive one update email until you actually view the thread. In other words, you only get notified once the first time someone replies after you last read the thread. It is done this way so that you don't receive loads of emails about threads you no longer care about.

Hi Chris,

Mine have stopped emailing me also, are you saying it's fixed, but i'll need to read the threads that i've subscribed to from this point and should start receiving emails again afterwards?

Regards,
Andy
