How come when you get a PM only sometimes you get a alert to your email box. I notice it doesn't work with every PM.

It has been flakey for the last year or so. It was fixed a while back but I still often find the notifications go missing or arrive about 3 days after I've already seen the PM

You have to look to the top always before active topics.

Don't know how you open the site but I saved the "active topics" screen on my favorites with password and you can see always if you have a pm.

Penzoil thanks for the info but that's not what I'm asking. I have no problem seeing my Pm's or getting them. I was just wondering why sometimes i get a email letting me know I have a Pm and sometimes I don't. Just wondering the reasoning behind it.

I dont know. Maybe the email server is backed up from subscriptions?

 

[Penzoil]

I got it lagalaxy8. Subscribe to a topic is the best way.

Is there a way to combine subscription emails into a single daily email? That would save a lot of bandwidth on your email server.

2 cents....

unless the email server is weak, there isnt enough active post to stall it.

 

[lagalaxy8]

Still I get email notification from certain people but not others. It's not random.

Does it send an email notification if you are logged on to the site when the PM is recieved?
