I am having issues with forum "thread-update" mail sent to my Yahoo acct. It seems that I don't get my alert emails until the next morning. That's when I have a bunch of them sitting in the Inbox. Any thoughts? I almost want to say that they are queuing up and then flooding my Yahoo mailbox at some point.

I look at the "New Posts" link and see a bunch of thread updates that I am subscribed to, but nothing is coming to my Inbox. By morning, I'll have a bunch of forum emails sitting there.

I know my Yahoo acct is configured correctly as I get other forums' email instantly. The forum emails are not going into the Spam folder either.

Is there an issue going on with the forum mail server?
thanks

I was also having an issue with the email notifications being WAY late.....:dunno:

I don't have yahoo.

I assume it was the site itself....

I'm not sure what is causing the issue. I have run test emails and diagnostics, but they find no problems. No errors were generated. All test emails were sent instantly and received within a few minutes. I even checked your setup and it too is setup correctly to receive notifications in real time.

I've only had one notification of a new post in days....:dunno: When I'm on here, they show as new (unread)

I'm wondering if the fact that Netscape folded & we went to Flock is why. I think it's been about the same time frame. It seems like all other email notifications are coming through. You know, those 30 or so junk mails that greet me every morning!:D I delete them out of the eprompter before I even go online.
