The Highway Forums Resources HELP Forum Loss of notification

Michele,

Okay..... I have done some further investigation and I think I know what the possible cause for your problem is. First, let me explain that there are two options you can opt into so as to receive e-mail notifications for post replies:

1) Do you want replies to YOUR posts emailed to you? This option you have chosen, "No". So, when someone replies specifically to something you have posted, you will not be notified of that reply.

2) Do you want all replies to your favorite threads emailed to you? This option you have chosen, "Yes". Which means that you should receive e-mail notification of ANY messages posted in those threads which you have made your "Favorite Thread", which I see you have several, including this one. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Now..... you also have said that you are not getting e-mail notifications for PM's sent to you, if I remember correctly. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/scratchchin.gif" alt="" /> Okay.... now here is where I think the problem lies. I also noticed that you have an "AOL" e-mail address. It is a known issue that AOL has blocked "the-highway.com" as . Why? Who knows... AOL is notorious for doing such things as this; one of the many reasons I detest AOL. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Anyway, it is very possible that the notification e-mails and subscriptions you have signed up for are being blocked by your server. There are others here who have experienced this same thing, who also are using AOL.

Okay.... what's the solution? There are a couple of options which I can suggest:

1) Change your e-mail address in your Personal Information to something other than AOL, if you have another one you use. And then see if the notifications get through.

2) Contact your AOL tech support and ask them (insist if necessary) that they check to see if "the-highway.com" has been black listed. If it has INSIST that they unblock it because you have subscription services you have personally signed up for and want/need to receive.

I hope this helps and/or resolves the problem.
