Could be, I would guess it to be your settings first thoughThanks bbirder,
Well, it seems to NOT be my e-mail address, which I swapped earlier today.
It also seems to NOT be the "accept spam" setting that I set earlier today.
It also seems to NOT be my specific ISP, now that we have someone on AT&T with the same problem - two of us are on Earthlink, but two is few enough to only be a coincidence.
Yes, but AFAIK, the thread update emails are sent out individually, not to a group and the receiving email server (earthlink for example) only sees those sent to earthlink's customers, they don't see the messages that would go to someone using hotmail or gmail.So I am left wondering if there is a message traffic cop somewhere that looks at large e-mail distributions, identifies the senders as spammers and just dumps the messages, or blocks the sender.
Say, over 1,000 messages each with a distribution list larger than 500 ?
a formula a bit like that.
Are you subscribed to get email notification when you post to a thread? IIRC, the forum default is no subscription when you post. I have mine set to subscribe me (so that I can see all new subscribed threads by clicking on "My Home" when I pull up TBN), but I have most threads set to not email me.
If you click on "My Home" do you see new replies on the threads you are subscribed to? If not, you are probably not subscribed to them. To see your subscribed threads, click on the "My Home" link at the top of the page (#1 in the picture below). The threads to which you are subscribed that have unread posts will appear. If you want to see all the threads you are subscribed to, click on the "View All Subscribed Threads" link at the bottom of the list (#2).
That will take you to a list of all your subscribed threads (a screenshot of mine is below) and tell you if you are subscribed to them. If a thread does not show up on this page (or pages) you are not subscribed and will not get email notifications of updates.
