Not getting notications of replies to threads

Hi. I'm not sure if this is the right section for this, but I'm having a problem with the forum site itself.

I have started and replied to several threads, and have indicated that I would like to be notified by email of any responses to those threads. I have only been a member for a few days, but I have received not a single notification of any response to my threads. I have checked the forum, and there have been several responses. However, I was not notified of any of them by email.

I've checked, and the email address on record is correct. And the emails are not being stopped by my spam filter either. Is there any other reason why I might not be receiving notifications?

Thanks in advance.

You seem to have ben bases covered. My only guess would be to try again.

I know this isn't constructive, but I figured you could use a reply to see if you get a notification...

Nope. Didn't work... I suspect a Microsoft conspiracy.

I have been posting to a thread that I started. I received notification of the first two replies, then notifications stopped.

I just changed to a different email address that I have, and it works now. I guess it didn't like my pobox account, or my pobox account didn't like it.... Smile

jboland: Perhaps....

When you replied again, you unselected "send me replies to this thread"

or

You didn't sign in when visiting, so it still thinks that you haven't seen it yet, so it sticks to its "only send one reply notification" rule.

Nope, neither of those. It's always set to reply, and I never received a single reply until I switched it away from the pobox. Maybe pobox is catching it in THEIR spamfilter... Yeah, that's probably it.
