ReikiAnge Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 I've noticed that I haven't had any email notifications of PMs recently, whereas I always have before now That's not really a problem for me as I tend to be here rather a lot anyway, but I thought I'd mention it. However I've just archived some PMs and whereas the file usually comes through straight away, it hasn't arrived yet. I hope that hasn't disappeared into cyber space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne Grose Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Don't quite know where to post this but I am not getting any email notifications of forums or topics that I have subscribed to. I have checked all my settings and they seem right and I am getting messages from other places. Any ideas why it might be happening Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReikiAnge Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 It could be being blocked by your email server - try adding noreply @ the refuge.org.uk to your address list or safe list (remove the spaces first) It's started doing it to me recently too Tracy, as I posted above, I am no longer getting PM email notifications or my archived messages. I already have the noreply @ the refuge.org.uk email addy on my safe senders list. I know I was getting email notifications of PMs on 10 April as I still have one, I may have deleted some since then but I know I haven't been getting them since at least Thursday and I lost all the PMs I tried to archive last week.

I just sent myself a test pm and the notification came thru fine Ange so I can't reproduce the error - you and Anne aren't using the same email provider so it's not likely to be an error with that I'll have a dig around and see if I can spot anything a bit weird lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne Grose Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 I didn't get a notification that you had replied to this but I don't have a email blocker on the email server that I use so I don't understand what is going on. Will have a dig on my server to make sure that they haven't just added a spam blocker for free just in case but up until last month (when I last checked) you had to pay for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReikiAnge Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Thanks Tracy The PM notifications aren't a problem to me as I'm here lots anyway but I thought I'd post about the archived messages bit in case anyone else loses theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uke Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Could the email problems be related to the recent problems Invision had with the Invasion of the Spambots? I know a lot of their IPs ended up on blacklists as a result of that and the cleanup is still ongoing I believe. I may be completely off the mark here but I don't know how the backend of the Refuge is setup and it seems very coincidental Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne Grose Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Well, I have changed my email address to a completely different provider and we will see if that makes any difference. I really miss all the messages that come from the Refuge. I am getting withdrawal symptoms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any idea how I get to report this problem to my usual IP provider. It sounds as though it's up to Invision to take the IP providers off their blacklist? Bummer for me as I don't have another provider, all my email address come through to my main one, so I'm not going to be able to archive anything.
