Don't seem to be able to send or receive PMs to my mail box like I used to.

Checked they are not going into the spam folder.

One thing I have wondered is if members are getting our default email when we delete a post.

Kiltie - that explains an awful lot with people getting their posts/treads deleted and not receiving the emails and why we've had so many questions regarding the deletions/sanctions for the last fortnight.
Still nought at 22:44.

Cheers,

Seems it's not working again. Started a couple of topics today, checked the "reply" box and nothing. although both topics have had several replies.

Also at the weekend I got several (6? 7? 8?) emails telling me I had a response, which was just my own one response to a thread which I kept receiving emails about over and over.

Update - I received 42 separate notifications of replies to posts overnight, for replies I'd already seen yesterday - looks like they were all sent around 0400-0500.

Plus a poster on a thread said he had PMd me last night and I haven't received that.

I believe there has been a problem which is hopefully on the way to being resolved.

It looks like messages were getting through, albeit significantly delayed. Hopefully the cork has been pulled out of the email server bottleneck. wink
