I have noticed that notifications of new topic posts to at least one Forum that I watch has not come through - Microsoft Windows.  This forum shows the latest post on 11th Feb and the last notification I received was on 6th Feb.  As far as I can tell I have not changed my profile and I continue to receive emails from the account I use for GZ notifications.

Wassup?

Check your spam folder please... As far as I can tell it's still active.

Sorry, I should clarify. I wasn't aware there was a different function and assumed forum watch was the reply messages.

It's forum reply notifications I'm lacking. None for the past 2 weeks at a guess.

When I get to a less secure corp network Ill disable the spamtrap preference and see if they appear to me then.

It would appear the option to change spam filter options has disappeared. So I cant switch it off and see if its trapping it. but still no notifications from post replies

In the last couple of days I've noticed that I haven't received any reply notifications, but when I visit the forum there are replies to threads that I've subscribed to. I use Gmail and I've checked my spam folder.

This should be fixed now. Due to the upgrade to new servers there was a misconfiguration in the FQDN for the mail server, not matching the reverse DNS result. This has now been fixed and should get these emails through the spam blockers.

workings right, 15-25 each time I check. Must have been a bit of a backlog waiting :)

Oh for consolidation from last visit

You have consolidation since last visit, if you mean a single notification until your next visit - check your user profile for options.

I am an Orcon customer and yes - normal service has been resumed.

Under the old Orcon spam detection I had this option turned off.  I see a new thread on a new Orcon spam detection option but have not read this yet.
