Re: Checking Forum Email Alert

Hi guys

Emails are getting to people. You're the outliers, otherwise we'd see many more "me too" posts here. Why you two? I don't know.

Or else everybody is keeping quiet about it.

Be sure you are watching this and other topics, or entire forums. It would make for quite a laugh if the reason you weren't getting emails was because you weren't supposed to get emails.

Also, check your UCP preferences. There might be something in there to turn on/off email globally.

Tapatalk and previous mobile theme are explained here: https://www.matthewsvolvosite.com/forums ... p?p=381067

There is an option to email users in addition to PM, but it might be a user-selected option.

I'm on mobile, or else I could tell you for sure.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

I'll look into the email option.
I see why you're not on Tapatalk now. I completely understand why you wouldn't want to be!

I went through all of the setting on my UCP, and I have all of the options checked to receive emails. And I know that I am subscribed to this thread and a few others.

Found an error on my behalf :oops: :evil:. Made a change to the way the forum software sends out email (as opposed to how the server sends out mail - I know, this stuff is arcane). Let's see if that does it.

Matt- Understand the Tapatalk thing now, oh well!

No errors in the UCP, it's my ISP, as it worked back in August. however I changed my email address to one that worked under a different a ISP this year.

Do me a favor and reply here, be curious to see if it works.

Nothing yet for me, hopefully the changes will go through and fix it, though.

Nothing on my end, yet, w/the different email domain. Not sure how email traffic is handled with a different domain but I still have the same ISP from the previous email domain that didn't work recently, but worked in August.

MY ISP had it working in August, and now it isn't. Their technical support claims nothing is wrong on their end. I'm fed up with them. I emailed them and no word. This is so annoying.
