E-mail Notficiations

[woodman19_99]

I was just curious, but I have that option clicked in Options section, but I haven't received an e-mail for like 2 days. ?( I know people have responded because I hang around here during the day, but no e-mail notes. What gives?

I think it's just PMs.

 

[Q]

Did you check "subscribe to thread"? You should receive an email each time that thread is replied to. You have to check that option for each thread you'd like notification from. There is an option to do that under the quick reply box on each page.

 

[woodman19_99]

It is checked for every thread I have written something for.

 

[woodman19_99]

OKay, like the two replies you guys have given, no notifications.

Same here, I'm not getting notifications either. ?(

 

[Q]

woody, did you break the board?

I notified the vb wizard...so hopefully your mailbox will be jam packed pretty soon.

 

[woodman19_99]

um, i certainly hope not. Boy would that piss a COUPLE of people off.

Thanks for notifying the vb wizard Q... your a doll.

Do you get private message notifications? If you do, then it could be because you're not marking the forums read, which resets your last visit time. The forum will only send you a notification about the thread if you have visited since it was created or the last notification was sent. (Does that make sense? )

 

[woodman19_99]

So what qualifies as a visit? Do I have to click on a link in an e-mail I received? "5/20/03 12:18pm" is what it says as the last time I visited. The problem is I have posted since then and people have replied, i.e. this very thread. I don't get any PM's ever. sniff sniff

Who's ready for the bone head of the month award!?! Turns out I wasn't getting e-mails at work because, in my infinite wisdom, I left Outlook running when I left from work today, so all the e-mails were being downloaded!!!!!

Well, duh, the problem was already fixed! woodman 19_99 left Outlook open. Once he closed it, all worked as it should.
