Perhaps to answer a couple of comments above. Kalmbach does care about the problem. However, they are a business and they (and their employees) do have "other" responsibilities that take priority sometimes.
On a good note, it does appear that some folks are getting their e-mail notifications now. One of the user-mods (Ken) just received a whole mess of e-mails this past evening. I'm still waiting for the "barrage".
In the meantime, hang in there and be patient with the solution, as this doesn't appear to be a quick fix sorta issue - whatever it is. Thanks.

And just now I got a notification to a post in another thread, so perhaps the problem has been fixed.

Just to let you guys know, we're stilling looking into this problem.
Bergie
I have email notification from twelve other groups, (not Trains.com) and they all come though very well.
One is a Yahoo email and very seldom is a message put in the "bulk" folder. I check regularly. The two email providers I use have an option to "train" the email service if the message is (not spam). Trains.com is just not working.
I joined 10-30-2006 and i do not remember ever getting a email notification.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.
It does seem that this could have been or should have been fixed by now. It makes me wonder if Kalmbach doesn't want it fixed right away...does having the Email notification down minimize the impact of trolls? It would be nice if someone from Kalmbach would address this issue with the fourm members.

Supposedly they are; I'll not compromise my source at this time - I'm sure he's around checking posts and such. It's going on what is like 3 weeks now since I started the original thread and I do agree it's taking a bit long to solve this. I wonder if anyone in the other forums, like Garden Railroading or the Trains magazine forums are having this problem?
Edit: Just went over to the Trains magazine forum and it's happening there as well. So it looks like it's Kalmbach-wide. What we really need is an answer from someone higher up the food chain at Kalmbach like Bergie.
Yeah, the silence is deafening.
Not getting any e-mail notifications.

Loathar, excellent idea. I just sent myself a PM and an email and neither one was received.

Mine's stopped a few days ago too.
Conjecture:Sounds like there's something in the programming relating how long we've been members to how long we get notifications?
Mark,
When you do, make sure it's a PM.
It's been a long time since I've gotten a notification... And if something's not done soon I'm writing my congressman!.

NOPE, no email notification of thread posts or PMs for Me either.

Greetings everyone!
Jack (jackn2mpu) sent me a PM this evening asking me if I'd update everyone on the e-mail notification situation. (And, no, I didn't receive an EN so I knew to check. ) Unfortunately, there's no new news to report at this time.
Rest assured, Erik (Bergie) and the folks at Kalmbach have been looking into it. So far though, they haven't been able to figure out where the problem lies. I'll let you know if I hear anything more definitive.
Hi Tom
I think I have to add myself to this list. Haven't got a PM in about 2 weeks. I sent Selector 3 this week alone and haven't got any replies.
Thanks.
jackn2mpu wrote:So has the problem been fixed then?
Nope, Jack. Still trying to figure it out. We'll keep you posted when there's some news...
I have had at least 5 PMs for which I have received 'zero' notifications. Before that (up to about a week ago) they came through normally.
