Alex in online publishing looked at your settings and said it is configured correctly and you should be receiving e-mail notifications. He could only ask that you check to be sure it is going to the right e-mail account for you.

Hello Bob:

The correct email is shown in my profile. I was receiving e-mail notifications yesterday, but not today. I didn't receive your above message by notification . Any suggestions?

Not really. While you and I might agree that something is amiss, what Alex sees is as it should be. Maybe if you unsubscribed, then waited a day or two and re-subed, that would do the trick. But there is nothing obviously wrong that online publishing can see.

Then Alex is not seeing the whole story. Unsubscribe for a day or two?? That makes no sense, at least as it has been explained (or is it an absence of an explanation). Tomorrow I will unsubscribe and then resubscribe. If that don't work I will try what RT suggested.

 FWIW, my email subscription stopped working also. Guess I will survive until it is fixed. As Gilda Radner said: "Its always something"

Pat,

I don't know of the problem you are experiencing, but I want to say that I am a born city boy, who loves the country and I love R.F.D.-T.V., Channel 247, where I live.

Thank You,

Ralph

Bob K - Please note that I am not the only one having trouble receiving email subscription (see above). Also, I have no problem receiving email notifications from the OGR forum. The problem is clearly with CTT.

Please pass this on to Alex. An up date would be nice.

Mine seems to have quit, too.  This happens about once a year.  When they finally diecide they have a problem and fix it I will get about 150 of them.

Pat......the problem you are having is one of security clearance.  CTT is culling out all of those with a zip code South of the Mason Dixon line or have been caught on security cameras buying grits and are conducting investigations.  Smile,Wink, & Grin

 Bob K - I know know of four of us not getting email subscription. Anything being done? Haven't had an up date. Please let us know. Not our computers, but a CTT problem. At least tell us if anything is being done.

What's an email subscription?  I have never gotten one.  Is this something I paid for?

You never can tell for sure when Buckeye is serious, being the great kidder that he is.Whistling

See the "Email Subscription Disabled" button at the top of each page? Click on it and you are supposed to receive the posts by email. At the moment it is not working and no one will say if an attempt is being made to fix it.Thumbs Down

No, you didn't pay for it. Wink

 I see the email subscription is working again. Thank you Bob K and Alex.

Phoebe Vet - You are right. When the email subscription came pack on today I received 164 emails in three minutes.

Still no explanation as to what happened. Doesn't really matter, just curious.
