missuscluck Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 My 'notify' e mails dont seem to be working. Is it just me or has anyone else had a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Mine havn't worked for at least a year now. Shame as I used to like them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaireG Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 A lot of mine seem to be going to my spam folder at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Mine have never been consistent - topics I used to get alerts for sometimes forget to notify me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 mine seem ok, but I've only signed up for them in the past month or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scramble Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Mine were okay, when I had them... but I just got so many! I didn't just get one e-mail per topic that had a reply, I got an e-mail per post to a topic...it drove me insane after a while...especially if I went on holiday and came back to 200 or so e-mails. It completely clogged up my inbox so in the end I had to cancel them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missuscluck Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 Mine have always worked well. I havent checked my spam box though. Thats a good idea. I wonder if they are in there?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt_b Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 The notification e-mails are being sent (we promise!), but they do seem particularly susceptible to getting intercepted by spam filters, both locally in e-mail software and at internet service providers. (AOL seems particularly keen on marking our stuff as spam and deleting it!) If you aren't getting notifications, or they're going straight to your 'spam' or 'junk' folder, it may be worth trying some of the following: Add 'info@omlet.co.uk' and 'barbara@omlet.co.uk' to the 'whitelist' of addresses allowed to send e-mail to your account. Instructions for whitelisting addresses in Yahoo, Hotmail/MSN, AOL and Outlook can be found here: http://www.emailtools.co.uk/tips/whitelisting.htm Add 'info@omlet.co.uk' and 'barbara@omlet.co.uk' to your e-mail address book (In many e-mail clients this will automatically whitelist those addresses.) You may also have to whitelist those addresses in any internet security software you are running, such as Norton 360 or AVG. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Those are all whitelisetd on my account Matt, and have been for years now. Whether or not I receive them is still random though *shrugs* doesn't bother me too much though, just wondering why it might be..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Mine seem to be working ok I think its a bit like the newsletter wether or not you get them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I've received email notifications for PMs since I joined the forum 5 years ago......but they have just stopped and I haven't changed anything at all. The only way I know I have a PM now is when a pop up appears when I log in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Mine all go to my yahoo account and after the web work at the weekend, yahoo has decided they are all spam candidates and sends them there, not to my inbox. Yahoo being rubbish, there is no 'not spam' tab on an email, so there they will have to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missuscluck Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 Nope. None of the above helps. Its a mystery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 I don't have a spam filter so mine definitely aren't going into spam. They are just not arriving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 I still receive the ones for PMs, which is all I'm signed up to, most of the time anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missuscluck Posted September 23, 2009 Author Share Posted September 23, 2009 As of yesterday my notify mails have started to arrive again. No apparent reason as I can see for their absence or reappearance. Very strange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
