    shame we have never received a reply from WEbmaster or anyone else on MSE team.

    It is disappointing.

    I tried your previous suggestion but that didn't have any effect either.

    is it working for you now?

    all of a sudden at 12.36am (Friday), all my notifications are working :j all of them! the freebies, old style, one I don't remember subscribing too but it has been a long time! Grabbit... all notifications are coming through.

    ok Webby - thank you for fixing it, would have been nice to have been acknowledged before though. After many e-mails, PMs, posting here, etc.

    I also received several overnight updates - including a couple for another username which I set up with a different email provider.

    When notifications first stopped coming through I tried setting up an account with a different email provider in-case it was some unknown settings that were blocking the emails. I haven't used this account since, but notifications come and go along with this account. (just thought I'd mention it after reading your post #9)

    Don't get your hopes up just yet though! Notifications are known for being sporadic.

    I've posted another thread on the subject here

    Yes! :T for the first time in months, I've had all of them come through.

    Fingers crossed it lasts now!

    Had to be too good to last.

    Although I'm still getting daily updates for some forums there's a few stopped coming through.

    Anyone else?

    forums effected include:

    Mortgage-Free Wannabe
    Pets & Pet Care
    Greenfingered Moneysaving
    Food Shopping & Groceries




    Just checked my emails.
    Last time it worked for any of these forums was 18th April
  • Thanks for the head's up. I'll take a look at it.

    Whatever you've done it worked.

    Thanks.
