    I have received several pm's recently, but no email notification. I have checked my settings and spam filters and everything is set correctly. Anybody else not getting their PM email notifications?

    Now that you mention it, I haven't been getting them either.

    Nope..nuthin.....NADA

    I noticed I quit getting the notifications the same time the "report this comment" was implemented. I wonder if there's a conflict with the scripting somewhere.

    Oh well. Just ANOTHER issue to wait and wonder about.

    I'm still not getting them. I am getting "announcement" emails, though. Has anyone else gotten a PM notification email lately?

    I have checked and re-checked settings and gone online to gmail to check my "spam" folder....nothing. hmmmmm

    These should now be working again.  Sorry for the hassle.

    I am signed up for email notifications for PMs but have only gotten them a few times at the beginning of the change-over of the board software.  I haven't gotten email notifications when i get PMs in a long time.

    Celia088, we have made a recent fix to this problem.  Are you still not receiving PM notifications?

    bco-admin,

    I received 3 PMs today and did not receive any email notifications. Perhaps i should wait a day or so to see if i get emails for new PMs and let you know.

    Thank you for working on this problem.

    edited later to add:

    I have since received more PMs after my above post, but no email notifications for them at all.  This feature is not working for me.  Hope you can figure it out.  Thanks!

    Good morning, bco-admin (are you still Melissa and Tami, BTW? Your screen name "bco-admin" is a bit intimidating for us computer dummies...Surprised)

    My PM notification is also still not working, but I'm not complaining, just letting you know in case it helps you work out the bugs. If there's something else I need to do to make it work please let me know.

    Thanks,

    Binney

    Binney, make sure you have changed your preferences to receive the email notifications and that your email spam filter doesn't block the emails from BCO sent from the account that reads do-not-reply@breastcancer.org

    Hugs,

    Uh, Fumi? How would I know what my email spam filter was up to? I do get bc.org's email research updates and notices about up-coming Expert Discussions. Does that prove my computer's not eating the PM notifications?

    As for the preferences, when I go look at them the "Send me an email notification when I receive a Private Message" is checked. It SHOULD be like that, right?

    Thanks again, Fumi. (By the way, I'm slowly making friends with my new computer, but I'll never trust it further than I can throw it. Treacherous thing...Tongue out)

    Now that you mention it, I haven't been getting any email notifications lately, like I usually do.  What's up?

    Everyone, we thought we had this fixed but will look further into the issue.

    Binney4, sorry for our intimidating moniker.  This account is not used by Melissa and Tami but by a collection of folks who work on the site and community technology.  I promise you that we aren't that scary!  Smile

    It's working for me, as recently as earlier this afternoon (3-5 hours ago).
