Ok, so you are talking about the other thread. ;-)

I did not get notification of mightyglydd's first post above, but did get one for rsx11m's. ](*,)
I did get notification of mightyglydd's second post, though.

Yeah, something weird is definitely going on. I'm not aware of kerz getting back to us on either of these issues... :-k

No, this has nothing to do with posting, it's regarding not being able to ACCESS Mozillazine. (sometimes 'the connection has timed out')

I've sent another e-mail to kerz (not a PM), let's see if there is anything he can do about it.

Er, FYI.

Kerz is a Chrome developer, I doubt he has the time or inclination to switch from a server that overall, over the years, has provided a damn fine service. (I suspect FREE ?)

It depends on what you mean by time outs. If you are talking about the problems folks are reporting with posting that never ends than that is the problem we are talking about here. If you are getting timeouts for other reasons than it is likely something on your end.

I have been subscribed to the Silvermel and Charamel extension forum for years. Just during the past week there have been two new posts and I didn't receive any notification. This is the first time this has happened.

This issue has been ongoing for quite some time. It has also be quite intermittent with no discernible pattern to when notifications will fail to be sent out. I have to remember to scroll up to see if there are posts I have not been notified of prior to the one I did receive notice of.

Thanks Ray. I didn't get a notification for your post. If it's intermittent I'll deal with it, but for me it has always worked and only for the past week it has not.

FWIW, I haave also noticed that I have had to log back in a couple of times this week. That rarely happens. Maybe there is a connection.
