E-mail

[psichonaut]

it's about 2 days i don't receve the e-mails that notify me the answers on the threads, i'm sure, i didn't resetted the settings on my profile.
has anyone the same problem?

[Eva]

No, I do get them. But had the same problem in the past (a week ago or so). Seems to me it was something temporary like the "500 Internal Server error"...

[Quiff Boy]

yeah, i think certain people here have must email addresses which either don't respond to the HL mail server's requests, or must be on a blacklist or something

i get a couple of bounce-backs of failed emails every day or so...

they mainly seem to be bounced 'topic reply notifications' as you describe, but to be honest, i dont really check them in any detail

if you want i can have a look through some recent ones and see if your email address appears in them

[Quiff Boy]

hmm,. just had a look and almost all the bouncebacks i get are for pista

they all seem to be like so:

eg:

Code: Select all

which suggests there is some kind of issue with pista's .hu mail server:

Sorry, no mailbox here by that name

sorry, there's no trace of any other mails i'm afraid

[psichonaut]

....and i still don't receve any notification

[Quiff Boy]

have you checked your hotmail.it spam settings? the emails might be getting flagged as spam and filtered out by the hotmail system

[psichonaut]

i think not, but in case i can't find the spam settings.
.....and nothing arrived on the alternative e-mail box, nothing in the spam-box...nothing at all, this is the reason why i can't understand

[Quiff Boy]

sorry, i have nothing in my server logs to show any record of their being a problem at this end

maybe try using a different (ie: non-hotmail) email address?

[stufarq]

I get PM notification to my inbox and the thread reply notifications go to my spam folder. Which is how I like it. So I'd agree that things seem fine Heartland's end.

[psichonaut]

the notifications arrived at the new e-mail address, so the problem must be with Hotmail, i changed twice the e-mail address on my profile and the notifications didn't arrived.
who could help me to solve this problem?

Go back into your profile and delete the given email address and then type in your new email address. In your profile you need to click on the boxes for your PM messages and the one with notification of topic thread or whatever the technical terms are. Save or update your profile by submitting it. Then when you are logged on within our walls and you then want notification of a certain topic thread, there's a line under the last poster and it say "Watch this topic for replies" hit that and Bob should be your uncle!

Try it.

Thanks MB for your kind help, but our Great Boss hepled me to solve all the issues, but it wasn't on HL's server but, i don't know why in my mail account on s-hitmail

Myspace seems to have the same trouble, so I put my finger on hysteric spam filters, and not on HL problems.
