Still no e-mail notifications...

[Ryan L.]

Don't know if its just me or what but I still don't get e-mail notifications when somebody replies to a thread or sends me a PM.

Anybody else having this problem?

I get email notifications, I got an email when you responded to my PM and I don't subscribe to any threads (not yet anyway).

I don't always get a newsletter, bout every other month usually or less.

That makes at least two of us.

Do you guys have email notifications turned on?

User CP > Edit Options > Messaging & Notification

There should be two boxes to check if you want to be notified of a new reply or a new PM.

I have the PM notification activated.


Maybe something else is going on...

Even though I am positive my thread subscription was turned on before I went and double-checked anyway and it was turned off. I have turned it on again and hopefully it will stay that way.

However, my PM notification is turned on yet I do not get them.

Our webmaster Ross Conradi has looked into this in the past and says everything on our side is operating as it should, I get e-mail notifications for any thread I'm subscribed to but have PM notification turned off.

I'll send the link to this thread to Ross and turn on my PM notification and see what happens....


:)

[Ryan L.]

Thanks Mike...I have looked at my settings as well and it looks fine to me, maybe I'm overlooking something.

Everyone who has email notification settings enabled is being SENT appropriate emails from vBulletin. Whether that email comes to your INBOX is something that is completely out of our control due to spam filtering, and junk e-mail handling these emails can and are filtered by some email providers.

My best advice is to check with your email provider, either by reading the FAQ they provide concerning how to manage your spam/junk email filtering or by opening a support ticket. Usually there is a way with email services to change the filtering for specific URL's, such as the one for the forum emails, so that that URL isn't filtered as spam/junk. The trick is to find out how to do it :chuckle1

I hope this helps you all out some.

My notifications are turned on. My list of subscribed threads is not empty. Still nothing.

Are we sure e-mails do leave your e-mail server? And that they are not blocked by receiving ISPs as spam?

[Ryan L.]

Same here...I was getting e-mails up until the server change, then nothing. I just looked at my spam/junk e-mail settings and they're set up to allow everything. Is there a way you (Ross) can send out a default e-mail from the server and we can tell you if we get it or not.

Ryan

[Ross Conradi]

We are positive the email is leaving the server, since Mike, and myself and many others do get the emails for notifications, such as I just did when you posted just now on both my meguiars.com mail account and my personal Yahoo mail account. :xyxthumbs

There very well could be email providers that are blocking blocking the domain, but this again falls into spam filtering and is something that has to be resolved between yourself and your email provider.

Thanks!

Mike can send out test emails if you want to work that out with him.

What is the domain/address from MOL, so I can add it to my Safe Senders list?

The from address for the thread notifications is MPHILLIPS@meguiars.com.

[VoicesInMyHead]

Well... Right there's yer problem. If they were just Blocking, then there may be a work-around. But, when the start Blocking Blocking... good luck with that!:LOLOL: :heelclick1.gif

[Mike Phillips]

Who wants a test e-mail?

Reply here, I'll send it out Thursday...

:)

[Ryan L.]

Me Me Me!! But if the notification is coming from mphillips@meguiars.com, you and me send e-mails back and forth no problem. That means that theres still something in my personal settings (and others settings) keeping us from getting emails.

Your provider might be filtering the IP address which is 67.192.231.82 or the host name which is LinuxWeb1.carcrazycentral.com
