works fine for me.

Are you subscribed to the threads you want notifications on?

Actually, I just looked at your profile and email address.

There are some ISPs that block mail from various sites and yours could be one of them. We have had issues with this in the past. The admins would know better which ones these are as they have dealt with some of them in the past to find out why emails from VBF are blocked.

if they're going out for one, they're going out for all. the server doesn't pick and choose which member to send e-mails to. If some parties are not receiving them, it must be the e-mail domain failing to deliver them. We have seen this issue numerous times and it has never been anything else. It's always been the e-mail provider failing to deliver our e-mails for some reason or other.

My ISP is AOL and I had the same problem as you. The solution was to create an account with GMail, change my information here to reflect the GMail email address and set up GMail to automatically forward to AOL.

I'm glad you posted in Martin. I remember you had this problem, but I couldn't remember how you fixed it.

I would also check with my ISP to find out why they are blocking our emails.

[toecutter]

ok, i set up a gmal account and made a filter to send any emails from this forum to my primary email address.
Can someone please post here so i can see if it works?

[MartinLiss]

Okay.

[toecutter]

mmm

I made another setting adjustment.

If dosnt work this time ill contact my isp provider

Sorry for the hassle

[MartinLiss]

No problem. BTW why do you need a filter? Why not just forward all your gmail to your normal email?

[toecutter]

mainly because gmail dosnt seem to give email alerts etc.
So you have keep checking

[MartinLiss]

Well there is a tool that will alert you to gmail arrivals, but if you always forward your gmail to your normal email won't the normal email alert you about the new mail?
