Title: PM email notification
Post by: Cakemeister on April 11, 2012, 01:20:42 pm

Hello,

Someone sent me a PM a couple of weeks ago but I did not get an email notification. So the PM went unnoticed for quite a while.

I think my account settings are correct for email notification.

Has there been a problem with this lately?

Regards,
CM

Your ISP doesn't like emails from arcadecontrols.com. They repeatedly block my server as being a source of spam. It's not an open relay, it's just the volume of email from people who are members of the forum.

Would it help for me to tell them to allow the traffic?

Thin the herd and get rid of some members.   ;D

Just wondering, do you have any statistics about how many of the members are active?

@Cake: I dunno, couldn't hurt. I've done it several times and they keep re-blocking it so I gave up.

@Eight: Not by anything that's useful - i.e. I can tell by individual user, but not by groups of people.
