| For the last ~ 24 hours, I didn't received email notifications about posts in watched topics. Is it just me? |

^ Thanks for your reply. I can confirm I did NOT received an email notification about your reply. So it seems that something is broken...

It's not only you. The last notification I received was 18 days ago (on May 17th) but I should receive them every day as I'm subscribed to many topics. It's a bummer, 'cause I have to check them manually now... At least there is this page, which helps a bit : http://www.progarchives.com/forum/email_notify_subscriptions.asp" rel="nofollow - http://www.progarchives.com/forum/email_notify_subscriptions.asp

So, I think this feature is definitively broken now. The last email notification I received was on July 8, so almost 3 months ago. Am I the only one to wish the return of the email notifications?

| Unless it's been disabled deliberately, it's probably something simple like a directory full up or an account suspended somewhere. M@x could probably fix it if anyone could get hold of him. This and the ongoing Chrome issues are going to bring this site down completely if they get much worse. |

| I'm still getting them, although it may be a bit inconsistent, I'm not sure. |

| I keep getting them, but it doesn't matter much to me these days TBH. |

That is a very good question, fully deserving of an answer.

I just received five notifications in a row (the first ones since July 8, 2022 !!!) for forum posts from October 23-24, 2022. And those were NOT the last posts from every topic. So something is definitively broken, but there is still a very little bit of hope...

Not working for me for days... I deleted all the subscriptions I had since 2015 and kept some recent ones for the collaborator zone, see if it's change anything...

Hello. I've just signed up and I haven't received any emails at all, for notifications or otherwise.

| Go into your member profile and look for forum preferences, that is where you can turn it on or off. |

Here is a more detailed explanation. Click on your site name, that will take you to Member Profile, at the top of this page you will see in tiny print Member Control Panel, click on that and you will see some choices, click on Forum Preferences and there you will see some choices including email notifications. |

I can confirm that the last email notification I received was 11 months ago! So the thing is broken since then. My way to "survive" is to consult this link on a daily basis: https://www.progarchives.com/forum/email_notify_subscriptions.asp" rel="nofollow - https://www.progarchives.com/forum/email_notify_subscriptions.asp

Thanks but I had already done this upon signing up. I've also since double checked email preferences and I am set to receive notifications. Nothing though, unfortunately. |

It seems that no one can fix this because I have send messages to max and other with no feedback... ------------- Music is the refuge of souls ulcerated by happiness. Emile M. Cioran |
