I never get emails from Peakoil.com.

All the emails I try to send now stay in the Outbox, instead of sent, going to two different people. Any explanation?

To be a little more clear, I have tried sending private messages from the site to two different people, and about five emails in total are just sitting in the Outbox instead of going to the Sent box.

Could this be anything you are doing there? I can not find a "smoking gun" problem

Thanks,

David,

It is because they haven't been read yet.

Once your e-mail has been read, it will appear in the" sent" box.

Normally whenever I open my email I get a set of topics which have been posted to since my last visit to PO.com, however for the last two days they have been very sporatic and randomly delayed. For instance some of the ones I received today after 5 PM were for threads which I have received posting notices from Thursday and Wednesday even though I have received later notifications for the same threads. I am not sure if these delayed notices are duplicates of earlier notices or just ones the server has been slow sending because I delete them as I read them.

Any suggestions as to what is going on and how to fix it from my end?

[MonteQuest]

I believe it's all on this end. Mail stuck in the queue.

Is any progress being made on this, I am still getting notices out of chronological order and some of the threds I am watching are not being reported at all, unless I have 20 messeges backlogged in the queue or something.

Don't know. I'll send a notice upstairs.

I never get email notification and my address is correct

[Tanada]

Okay PO Admins, it has been several months of hit or miss email notifications that new messages have gone through, bnut for the last 72 hours I have received zero email alerts from the board.

I checked my email system at 6 PM tonight and my test emails went through nearly instantly.

Still no email from po.com though.

I have been getting my notification emails flawlessly since I signed up, but all of a sudden they have stopped comming.

Its now been 4 days since I recieved a notification. Do you know what the problem might be?

Thanks

[steam_cannon]

Sometime ago I changed my email account for notifications and they stopped coming too...

[Narz]

I have no idea but I love your av.

[jbeckton]

Tanada posted about the same problem. Aaron is investigating it and will try to fix it. I'll try to keep y'all informed about progress. If the symptoms change please update me. Thanks.

I only posted a new thread becasue I think that tanada said that his email notification was delayed, mine isn't comming at all.

I should have just posted it in that thread anyways, sorry.

If we are all lucky they will be stopped altogether. The genius who decide to make notification a default on the reply form should be flogged with a wet noodle.

[mekrob]

I've never gotten my notification emails in the two years I've been here.

[Tanada]

Aaron and Shanny, don't know what you did but I got a que dump of 229 messages from PO.com this morning dated from 11/05/2007 1:52 PM through 11/17/2007 3:27 PM.

That should have cleared everything up to last Saturday, however the que ends there.

Just trying to keep you updated, looks like some solid progress has been made from this end.

If you go to your profile you can set the system to NOT send you notifications, it is entirely within your power as long as everything is working correctly.
