Not getting notification for threads I am watching

Post by Joseph Elfelt » May 6th, 2016, 7:42 pm

My email address is correct.
But I have never received an email when someone replies to a thread I am watching.
My 'notification' preference is set to request an email.

mine has been hit and miss. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don’t. Lately I don’t... mostly. Years ago it was reliable, something has changed... its been a while too but I havent kept track, Ive just gotten used to checking the website if I want to track a thread Im in....

This email account has a spam filter that I defined.
I double checked and it does not filter out email from OH.

I often forget to subscribe to my posts, and don't think you get notification beyond the last notification since you last checked the thread.

I set my gmail to accept OHs a while ago, I just checked my spam folder and there are none in there from here.

The last few days I'd say I got most of the notifications I was participating in. But its not always the case, is all Im saying.
