I'm not getting email messages for replies to my messages again.  :(
This happened to me once before a while ago. I haven't touched my settings since the last time. Anyone else have this trouble, too? (I asked this same exact question a while ago...)
What would cause that? I am positive that I have never accidently reported an email notification as spam.

Perhaps email is just really slow, or your service providor might think that the email is spam. You might check with your ISP.

All my email notifications from this forum are being delivered to my "bulk mail" folder in Yahoo...which means that someone somewhere has reported them as spam at some point, so they're being delivered there instead of into the regular inbox.  

Maybe yours are having the same problem, but are being automatically deleted before you can get to them?

some e-mails do that automatically....i was on a listserv for a while, then my e-mail service started denying the e-mails becuase i got so many from the same sender in one day.  O-well...it took up too much of my time anyway :-D

"Lately somedays no notification, then it works fine a day. Then back to no notification."

Same here. I got an email notification for this message tonight. This is kind of strange...

I've never received en email after a reply to one of my posts, even though I have my profile configured to do so.  I just wrote it off as an unimplemented feature.  I do get notified by email when I recieve a PM, though...

Paul Marossy

I usually get emails for PMs, too.

EDIT: I got three email notifications this morning. The other thing I have noticed is that I will get emails on a topic for a while, and then they suddenly stop, even though people are still adding posts. Maybe I am expecting too much? At least this forum will send you an email...
