Hi,

I just wanted to see if there is any problems with the server sending out emails for subscribed threads? There have been many replies to some of my subscriptions in the last few days, but no emails sent for me. My mail account is working fine.
I tryed to search the forums to see if there was something I'm missing, but. couldn't find anything.
I'm subscribed to 254 threads at the moment. Is there a limit for subscriptions or something ?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Regards,

Your cookies might have gotten messed up. Go to your User Control Panel, Edit Options, scroll down a bit and see if you're set to get email notifications. There's another option that lets you subscribe to threads so you'll see new replies at your User Control Panel but won't get emails....
 
Hi, Cougar,

Thanks for your response.

I did everything I can, searched the forums, options, cleared all my cookies, logged out, logged in, but still not receiving the mails, thou I can see new replies at User Control Panel.

Any Idea ?

I do suspect of a limit for mail subscriptions, (althou I didn't find anything about it in my searches) since it started exactly when I reached 250 subscriptions.

Can somebody be positive about that ? I mean, not existing a limit for more than 250 subscriptions ?

Regards and thanks in advance,

I've never heard of any limit, but to make sure you could delete a few of the oldest long-dead threads and see if that fixes it.

More likely your ISP has an overactive spam filter that's killing everything from Bladeforums. Hassle them about it. When there's a problem at Bladeforums we get more than one person reporting it....
 
Maybe you should unsubscribe some of these threads. If email to you bounces, I disable your profile.

I don't know of any subscription limits, that said. You also won't get messages if you log in and there's a new post during the time frame you are logged in.
 
Hi again,

I have unsubscribed for more thn 50 threads, and still not receiving the mails.

Sorry to keep asking, but, any ideas ?

Thanks,

I'm not receiving mail from one subscription -> canoe <-

Otherwise, newer ones are coming in as usual and I have a total of 139 active subscriptions. I will try to delete my canoe subscription and re-subscribe and see if it makes a difference.

[Edited to add]
Even though I could see my subscribed thread in my user CP it said 139 active subscriptions. When I added it again it said 140 active subscriptions. Looks like the wonky ones have to be resubscribed to.
Woe is Altimba :D
