not receiving email notifications
not receiving email notifications
I haven't received any email notifications of any kind from net-chess since the 20th. (and yes, I've checked my spam and asked my ISP, and no, I haven't turned off notifications as far as I know and can tell). Does anyone know if there is a problem, or if the fates are picking on me?

...the fates are not picking on you! It seems, that email notification is not working a couple of days.algernon wrote:I haven't received any email notifications of any kind from net-chess since the 20th.

No Changing of E-Mail Adress either
I've not been able to change the e-mail adress for the forum, either. But I'm not sure if this ever has worked at all.
And I didn't see new topics marked as new.
Poor Greg! Seems there's some work to do at the moment.

In my case, the email notifications stopped coming about a month before the site crashed!
I checked all my necessary settings as well, and still nada. They did come back for the first time (and suddenly I had several hundred!) come in all in one day after the site's return, then nothing for a few days.
I haven't checked my email for a day now, so God only knows what may be there now, if they started again.
I figure if I can still play my games, I'm happy though. My wife said I was going through withdrawal when Net-Chess was down.
Ahhhh ..... automation and computers! Ya gotta give em credit for finding new and unique ways to complicate life!

There were some DNS issues a while before the crash that probably prevented some e-mail from going out. It's mostly affected by whether your ISP would allow e-mail from an apparently non-existent DNS name.
I haven't yet finished configuring e-mail on the new server, so it's not surprising that e-mail isn't working yet.
