Hi Folks, I have my e-mail notification set to "instant email notification"
It comes in very handy when you are trying to follow a fast moving thread.

However, for the last few days, I have not been getting those e-mails.
I tried to change my notification to once a day, saved it, and then went back but it's still not working correctly.

Is there a problem with the system, or is it just me?

Oh, and please understand if I don't get the notice right away that there's been a reply here. ;)

Server has successfully sent your 24 notification mails today. And 59 yesterday. Are you sure you read the correct email account?

Yes, I am sure I read the right account.
I am getting a few sporadic ones. But not all of them.
I even cleaned up some of my subscribed threads, getting rid of a lot of the old ones.

I guess the problem must be on the Yahoo side of things.
Thanks for checking.

I just changed which address to notify to.
We'll see if that does the trick.

Thanks again for checking.

Yes, but I was getting them regularly. Then all of a sudden, they stopped.
However, moving to another e-mail address for them to be sent to looks like it may have helped. ;)

Using e-mail tracking for fast-moving threads may be counter-productive. Your mail provider, seeing a flood of messages from POTN, may be classing it as spam and blocking us. End result, neither you, nor anyone else with the same provider, will get any notifications.
