    The problem is not on our end, that's for sure.

    I haven't seen @Ken Anderson in this thread in awhile, maybe he doesn't realize we are still having problems.

    I'm here, there just isn't anything I can do about it. Email notifications are a function of the forum software, as well as an interaction with my email server, neither of which I understand or can directly control. A couple of months ago, the problem was that people were sick of getting emails from the forum so I made a change so that members would have to ask to receive email notifications. Now the problem is that people aren't receiving email notifications. If I had time, I could try to see if I can get someone with either the forum software company or the web host to see if they can figure it out, but I've been swamped with stuff lately.

    Don't worry about it, Ken. It's not a big deal.

    Just quietly, I kind of like the fact I don't get about 25 notices a day..

    The thing is Steve, those that don't want them can opt-out of receiving them.

    Paul.. I agree..
    I tried to eliminate about 25 or more notices daily, but I didn't know where to do it.. I would go down my Gmail daily to delete all the notices of posts..
    Now it doesn't matter as we don't get them anyway..
    However if they ever come back, I will ask how to do it then...

    THANKS !!!

    Well if they come back Steve and you still don't want them,.. before you post your reply, click 'More Options' just below the reply box here.
    Just below your post you'll see the option to receive or not receive email notifications. Tick or untick the box.
    The choice is then made for all email notifications relating to that particular thread. :)

    I'm not sure if it's necessary to also tick or untick the box from your profile page 'Preferences'.
