    I've also not received any email notifications since 13 July. That will be two weeks tomorrow, surely we are due an update.
    Oh !  I have just received this of yours by email in the normal way, first for couple of weeks...is it starting to work again ?

    Your reply also send me first email notification since 13 July, but a bookmark thread updated 5mins ago and I didn't get a email for that. So it seems to be only newly joined threads that are getting notification email, not threads bookmarked on old forum.
    I've tried turning all my bookmarks off (thankfully only a dozen or so) and turning them on again, will report if that does anything...

    I had the same idea, lets see.

    I toggled the bookmark subscription off and back on on three threads bookmarked on old site, and one of the thread just had a post and I got a email. So it seems toogling old bookmarks off and back on restarts emails if you haven't had any

    It updates for me (on desktop and tablet), but not in a very useful way @MikeyPGT .  For example, it just showed me your single post here - but now I've visited, that will (actually already has) drop down the list of notifications and the top item will then become there being 451 new posts here. Which if I were to click it, would take me to page 30 of this thread.  It's the same with all notifications.
    Weirdly it just told me that you had mentioned me, but that is the only thing showing later than 13 July.  I get the feeling that usage has dropped off significantly on the threads that I visit ...
    And now it seems to be working more or less normally - coincidence or MSE actually picking up on comments?

    Indeed, after toggling I have now had emails from two other boards, one I joined today and one I joined many months ago.

    I too have started receiving emails for new posts on here. It isn't bookmarked, but I have notifications swtched on for threads I have participated in, and after a long lull, they seem to have started up again. Hopefully something has been fixed somewhere.

    I've also just started receiving notifications and email notifications. I have just checked my settings though and this thread I have been sent 10 emails for comments posted even though I have emails turned off for new comments on posts I've participated in.

    I have just checked my computer, and found fourteen e-mail notifications.  Thank heavens!

    To add to the I'm now receiving notifications besides receiving email notifications for posts commented on even though I have that option switched off when I click on the bell for my notifications it shows as having 25 new notifications for this thread but when I click on it it takes me right back to page 31.
