Ebay/Paypal emails

Hi,

Has anyone else problems getting all emails/messages via Ebay and Paypal? My mother-in-law emailed me via Ebay and i have never received it in my inbox or on my ebay. Also i don't seem to be getting any paypal payment confirmation emails. I checked on the site and it said i should receive them.

Also with Ebay when i send a message, you know it asks you to check a box if you want a copy emailed to you, even though i dont tick it i still get a duplicate.

Just wondered if it was just me or if anyone else had experienced this.

Have a nice day.

    To complement Jaffa's experience, I have had problems with ebay e-mails, but not paypal ones. Perhaps there is an option in our accounts somewhere where we can choose. ;)

    I just got 2 copies of the same email within a few seconds of each other earlier, I hope this doesn't become a common thing.

    elmer I think you can stop them by going to Preferences in My eBay.

    I think it's contagious! I've just received a dispatch email from amazon for an item I received on Monday.
