Problem with emails from Forum

Morning,

I just wanted to ask others if they have experienced problems receiving email notifications from this forum?

(I did think of posting this in the BT Yahoo mail thread, but personally I am not convinced my problem IS

anything to do with that)

My emails come in via BTinternet and BT yahoo mail.

I subscribe on this forum, to receiving notifications when someone replies to a topic I am following.

Yesterday I made a number of posts  and from 16.47pm I received NOTHING from this forum.

I say nothing...but I did get PM's immediately...which was confusing to say the least

Emails from other people and forums continued to arrive into my inbox on time. (hence my rationale

that it is an O2 forum problem and nothing to do with my server or internet provider)

This morning? 45 emails into my inbox...ALL from O2 forum and ALL out of sequence

So this is annoying. I am not constantly on the forum.I occasionally log on...however if someone replies

to a thread I am following, once I get the email, I log on to reply if needed.

So, a bit of a straw poll really ...to ask if anyone.else is experiencing this problem?

NB. I know of one member who experienced this yesterday. (though for me this has happened before)

Hi guys,

I've turned the PM email notification system on and off again. I'll send all involved a test PM now. Do let me know if and when you receive an email if its possible.

Thanks @Toby - got the TEST PM, but like @Cleoriff I am not getting the email notifications about threads I follow.  I used to get the notifications regularly.

@Toby 

I have received the Test PM... but no email to say it was here...(which is a change for me from yesterday..)

As they were the only emails from here I did receive (ie from PM's)

I've not had problems with Pm's either.

Just late emails or batches of e mails letting me know someone has left a post or mentioned me.

Toby your Pm was received.

It's weird because at some points they come through as soon as they hit my server and then at others I'll get several at once. 😞

Just got your email @Anonymous . However surely we can't carry on with this intermittent process?

I still have not received emails about anything else I have posted today Smiley Mad

I agree this acts as a great tool to keep up on your posts.

I'm getting the odd e mail through @Cleoriff

The powers that be are aware so fingers crossed this will be remedied ASAP. slight_smile

And just to update @Toby  I have JUST received 2 email notifications from the 2 PMs you sent me...

I am off out now, and as its me... I dont 'do' emails on my phone If I can help it LOL

All I can hope is that the problem is rectified asap.

I am not a forum trawler (I mean that in the nicest way) I rely on getting emails for notifications.

If you like, they are my lifeline to this place ...:smileywink:

I checked with Lithium and we haven't had any updates. Any more people having this issue?
