Not receiving email notifications

Post by Bozz »

I haven't recieved any email notifications from mozillaZine since April 15 for threads I am subscribed to or PM's. I haven't made any changes. Don't use junk filters. Checked my Comcast account online just in case there may be a Spam filtering problem.

Anyone else having this problem?

Kerz has recently moved the server. This may be another side effect if others experience the same issue...

Yeah, that thread could to be related to the server change as well.

I did receive a couple of notifications today. A PM that was sent last might came through and another for a thread that I subscribed to but haven't posted in.

I haven't received one yet today for your reply in this thread though.

FYI: I am a regular subscriber to the Firefox Nightly build threads. For the current one, http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2931275, there was a post at 5:10 AM ET, but I did not receive the email notification until approximately 6:10 AM ET.

Also, at other times, it seems the email notifications for this and other threads delayed for even longer periods of time.

An additional FYI: The timeliness of email notifications can be very inconsistent. The next notification from the Nightly build thread was in virtual real time. Go figure.

For me, they have been hit or miss, very intermittent. At times, they're virtually real time, but then the past few days, I have not been receiving any notifications from the Nightly build or Custom Theme Restorer threads, for example. ](*,)

EDIT: At the moment, notifications are occurring in the expected fashion. Go figure. #-o

Are things working correct now for you too Ray?

I am assuming you have to subscribe each day to the new Nightly. Do you unsubscribe from the old one?

It's the same issue for me too:
I've automatically subscribed (the checkbox "Notify me when a reply is posted" was ticked when I pressed Submit)
to this new thread I've started (viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2934887).
Yesterday someone replied to it (i.e. ~40 hours ago)
but I've not got a notification.
