emails

[crazylegsmurphy]

This forum is about as consistent as a blind sniper trying to shoot a penny off the back of a running horse when it comes to sending emails.

Threads I start sometimes will send me emails when someone posts, other times not. Then sometimes I'll get emails for random threads I post in.

I dunno why this is happening, but it sure is annoying.

Hey Crazylegs, I'm checking into the email thing. I tried sending you an email a couple days ago thru the board, did you receive it?

thanks.

Me, too!

AHH...NO!

I didn't get an email from either one of you! I sent you both emails a few days ago as well....quite important ones at that.


P.S. I also never received an email about this thread as well, I just happen to see that you posted because I manually browsed back here.

[NH Baritone]

I didn't receive your email, either.

Methinks there's a bug in the works.

Aaarghh. OK, let me see what's going on. Darned PHPBB. I'll work on this over eggnog.

BTW, send any important emails straight to emery@losingmyreligion.com. Spamarrest will ask you to fill out a captcha the first time, but that's all.

Thanks guys.

Ya, I remember this forum software...it can act up at times. I resent my email to the address you've posted above (you may want to go edit that out so even more "bots" don't find it resulting in more spam)

It would be cool to get it working because there isn't anything to indicate it's not, so I have been sending emails to people and just thinking they were big jerk faces for not getting back to me!

Would this problem also cause me to not be able to register at the forum over the last few days? Finally worked today so hi everyone.

I dunno...I'm suddenly getting every email from the forum (I dunno about personal ones from here). So maybe Emery fixed it.

Welcome to the forum (again if you saw my other post)

Hmm, seems my "fix" hosed the registration confirmation and board emails. So going back to how it was seems to have fixed the board and reg emails, but I'm not sure if personal emails are fixed. If someone tries it, let me know if it works.

thanks.
