PM's stopped for me as well about a month ago.  If I don't look when I log in, they can go unanswered. Tony

Have you changed settings in your browser to block pop up windows?

Mine will pop up if I log on, but that's not the issue.

I used to receive an email notification, saying I had a PM, or there was a response to a thread I suscribed to.

That is no longer happening.

Which boxes do you have checked in your profile for email and notifications?
If those settings got accidentally changed that could explain the lack of notifications.

I've never changed them, but who knows? :?

I have the following checked:

Receive forum announcements and important notifications by email.

When sending notification of a reply to a topic, send the post in the email (but please don't reply to these emails.

For topics and boards I've requested notification on, notify me of replies and moderation.

I have only these checked, --- since you are not getting emails you might want to verify that there is no typo's in your email address but other than that the only thing I can think of is your email system might be filtering the emails as though it thought they were spam. If you have junk file where spam gets sent you might want to look to see if you have a bunch of emails out there from this board.

Since it happened to a lot of us at about the same time, I wouldn't think it was something we did individually. Again, it doesn't cause a problem for me. It's just different than what was happening. Wayno

Elmo, I agree. I haven't changed anything, and the fact that several of us are experiencing the issue, leads me to believe it's a site problem.

I guess I'll just have to sign on more often! :-D

Did I mention that Bob, our web elf, is on a ten-day or so bike vacation?  But -- I've sent a note to him to ask him to get on with trying to figger out what's going on with those of you that are having this problem.  Your comments and requests are not being ignored - we'll get things working right if we can - and son.  Sorry for the hassles -- I hope it isn't something caused by one of the bad guys.  We haven't had many spambots in the past weeks. . . :cheers:

Threadjack? You're welcome! :evil:

Seriously though, I posted this here because SSS suggested it. I sent Jon an email, asking about the issue. He thought I should post it here, and see if anyone else was experiencing the problem.

There must be a lot more people with this problem as I have sent a bunch of PM's in the last month and hadn't heard back from any of them. :? Tony
