No Email notification

**Jupiler** · 03-07-2007, 12:52 AM

Go to your User CP.
At the left, you'll see "Edit Options". Under "Messaging & Notification", you'll see a line "Default Thread Subscription Mode".
Make sure that "Instant Email Notification" is choosen, then click "Save Changes" at the bottom of the screen.

There could be a few reasons:

your e-mail address may be not up to date
your e-mail service provider may have filtered charles@pictographics.net
your current e-mail address may be on banned lists
e-mail notifications could be deleted by your spam control
it does not like you

Put a different e-mail address (try using a different e-mail service) and see. It is not XtremeSystems' fault because I do get e-mail notifications all the time.

my email is up to date.
my email is not filtering charles@pictographics.net as I have checked the filters.
hmm... can you check that for me.. my email is johnshim at johnshim dot com . dunno why it'd be on a banned list as its my personal domain.
this might be the best explanation.

i will test with another email address. thanks.

**Millyons** · 03-12-2007, 12:11 PM

well im not getting them again ....

and all my settings are the same as when i do get them and my email settings also ..... this has worked fine for me since i joined and it started screwing little before i posted this thread.....oh when i think about it this time i think it stoped a day or two ago when there was that server down time

Is there anyway you can check to see if johnshim at johnshim dot com is blocked for any reason?

just wanted to jump on the band wagon.

my account is no longer properly sending email updates either; just started yesterday. i use xtremesystems daily and have for some months now and it's always performed flawlessly.

also, i tried a new test account with a different email and it didn't work either.

...

poltergeist?

That means you are screwed!

SB, I just sent you an email from my gmail account to verify your getting emails and the addy is correct... Also, check your spam folders to make sure that the xs emails are not going there instead of your inbox... I have checked your account and your pm's and instant subscriptions are on so you should be ok but check that email addy.

@s1rrah I am going to suggest the same thing for you as DB.. I see your using gmail for your email so check your spam folder cuz I know for myself I had them going there sometimes and didnt even realize it...

I have also sent the 2 of you test pm's to see if you get them so please reply and let me know.

@Millyons almost forgot ya

same goes for you as well... Please confirm..

Thanks guys and sorry for the issues I am sure I'll get them worked out...

Both of yours were turned off so I enabled Instant email notification..

**njkid32** · 03-15-2007, 12:24 PM

LOL triple post...

Please everyone check your spam folders cuz I think this is the biggest problem.. With the server and upgrade your email clients might get confused thinking its a new email server and is thinking its spam... I have had this happen myself... So please check and report back.. Thanks!

**Millyons** · 03-15-2007, 02:24 PM

got the pm and got the email notification for it on gmail, and have been getting emails to gmail no prob from here....tried changing back to hotmail and its no go i dont even get the email change verification mail checked the spam and there is nothing there ...... so to sum it up it works 100% on gmail and not at all on hotmail for me, not even in the spam

**s1rrah** · 03-15-2007, 03:32 PM

i fixed my problem, FYI.

turns out it simply was that xtremesystems was having personal problems with my domains email server at 3essentials.com; i signed up for a gmail account and changed my email prefs in user cp and things work just fine.

not a problem since gmail has pop/smtp access and i can run both my personal mail account and my gmail account through outlook.

**steelballzz** · 03-20-2007, 10:35 AM

all seems normal now

i received a bunch of old notifications and now everything looks ok

thnxs

**MikalCarbine** · 03-20-2007, 11:25 AM
