All the settings seem to be correct but I am not getting notifications.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

I think I fixed this. Let me know

Thanks very much ! Yes I received a notification of your post.

There were two replies last night to my post in another thread for which I did not get notifications. However these were posted at 11.35pm and 11.41pm, so probably just prior to your fixing it, as your post was was 12.48 am.

I assume there is nothing I could do myself to fix it...or stop it happening?

no, nothing you could do. We use an external mail delivery service. They are aggressive about not sending emails to previously bounced emails. Your email bounced for some reason a while back, and so they stopped trying. I had to clear the bounce so it would start trying again.

It has started happening again.....would it help if I changed my email MacRumors registered email address?

I am currently using my name@mac.com address and having no problems anywhere else but I have two other email addresses I could use.

Thanks

Ya, it looks like it bounced again. The error message wasn't helpful. If you can switch to another email, it might help.

I am not getting notifications since changing email, but realise that maybe I have to unwatch and rewatch my watched threads for the email to switch to the new address, so I have done that.

Still not getting notifications after changing email address. Getting used to using Alerts instead.

Seem to have started working, to the new address.

Thanks if this is because you did something!
