Forum subscription problems?

Yes, not getting the blog notifications either.

Really hating to be the pest. But IS someone working on this? Has it been shelved until later for another urgent issue?

The lack of email functionality is also making it so new users can't get their registration emails, so we can't change our avatars or play the XP game.

Is the problem with ALL subscriptions now?

When I encountered the issue a while back (obviously ongoing) I tracked it back to MSN/Hotmail blocking enworlds thread notifications as spam. They don't even send it to my spam filter, they apparently just kill some emails and don't even send me it even when I set them as a safe sender.

If that's the issue, I think the only way to 'really' fix is it to talk with MSN and see what they want in order to unblock it. I have no idea how difficult that would be. However, you can workaround by changing your email address to a gmail account or anything else that's working.

If the issue though is with all emails... well that's another issue. Any idea how far the mail is getting out before it dies?

It's with all emails as far as I can tell. I'm not using hotmail and I'm not receiving either my account confirmation email or my subscription emails.

I've turned off the requirement for email confirmation for now, at least until we cna work out what's wrong with the email system.

Thanks, Russ!

Good luck with the email wrangling.
