Is there another tweak that has disabled email notification of new PMs? I've noticed in the last few days that I haven't been receiving email notifications like I was before.

If no change, where do I go to update that setting? I can't find it anywhere in the UCP.

Thanks.
I noticed this yesterday myself. So you aren't alone. If it is a matter of choice, then I would ask "please". Otherwise I never look to see if I have any messages.

Same here. Please re-enable it if possible. I get a fair amount of PM's related to the LCC project and without the notification they might go unanswered for a few days.

Thanks for your consideration :)

There is a place under "Board Preferences" to click whether or not to recieve notification of PMs. Make sure you check that first. It may have gotten switched off.

Hmm, I don't think I did anything to change this.

I had mine turned off because I didn't need email notifications, but I just turned it back on and sent myself a test message. I didn't get an email. Odd.

I may have figured it out!

It looks like Gmail decided to start moving the notifications into my "spam" folder. You guys might want to check to see if that's what is happening to you as well.

It isn't gmail for me...mine come into a hotmail account. And they aren't in spam for me.

Dang. Mine aren't in the Spam folder either.

This isn't happening only at CC. I have another forum running the same software and I'm not receiving the email alerts at the hotmail address either. Maybe the software people disabled the ability to send things to hotmail accounts? I kind of doubt it was a CC admin tweak, after further investigation.

I didn't think this forum allowed the Hotmail domain anyway? I know I had to use a live.com.au address from Hotmail to register here.

Oh that is a rule that existed after I was a member. I have never had an issue with this before. And I have gotten pm notification in that hotmail address since day one. It has only stopped in the last week. Anyone who was a member before the rule of no hotmail, was grandfathered in.
