Hello guy's, has anyone got an issue with the instant email notification that is used for forum post and replies etc? I have stopped receiving them although I am subscribed to certain threads.
Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

    Works fine for me with Gmail.

    It's not getting picked up in your junk folder is it?

    No, I have got rules set to organize my email on my pop/IMAP server, I am just trying to send some test messages, I think the problem is mailbox size so I will delete some of the crap and see if that sorts it, thanks for the reply.

    The email account is ok it must be from MSE, I will double check my settings.

    In the interim, you could always go to http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/usercp.html and click the little blue box to the left of the 'new' topics.

    Is my MSE set up wrongly? I can't see a little blue box or "new" topics.

    It lists subscribed topics with new posts that you have not read yet. If you've read all new posts on your subscribed topics, then it won't show any ;)

    That's why then...:o
    This now leads me to say I now have a prob. My User CP didn't show your reply to this thread when I logged back on, but when I logged on about an hour or so ago it showed 4 subscribed threads. :confused:

    It now shows my latest post though.
    Must be some glitches because when I tried submitting my first post it said it couldn't connect to the server. I then clicked "back" and tried again only to be told to wait 2 seconds because I couldn't post again in under 30 seconds. So, 2 seconds had passed by now LOL so I tried again only to be told "You are trying to post a duplicate of a post you made in the last 5 mins and isn't allowed". LMAO
    Lo and behold the first or second attempt was there.
