QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS SITE

[Carruthers]

I have opted to receive instant Email notification for new posts in subscribed threads and PMs, yet I never receive any.
What am I doing wrong? Any ideas, please?

OK, trying to think of the easy stuff - Is this one of those threads? Current/correct email on file here? Did you log in to your email? I only get notifications for PM's and thats always worked here for me.

Thanks for your reply, Classic.
Yes, my Email address is up to date and Email is always on somewhere; phone, iPad or PC.
I opt for any thread where I have posted, to be added to the subscribed list but have never had a notification Email.
FWIW, It hasn't always been like this and I did opt out of receiving notifications a while back, but having opted back in a few months ago it has never worked since.

It turns out we are on a Hotmail block list, in their error. No email from The Cellar will reach Hotmail users at all.

I do not know how to remove us from this list. We are not in Spamhaus or anyone else's blacklist.

BTW this precludes us from taking any new users that try to set up with a hotmail.com email address

This is the error we get

Thanks UT.

That's a bit of a nuisance to say the least.
Anyway, I now know where the problem is.

At the bottom of the Edit Options page, click on the Save Changes icon periodically and maybe you'll catch the system on a good day.

I have an MSN email address and I don't get notifications I've opted for either.

Who you gonna call, MSN?

UT, this report form is supposed to help with getting a domain on whitelist. Don't know if this is what you've already tried. I don't have the required info to try it myself:

Just a couple of minutes ago I received two Email notifications of posts to subscribed threads so it appears to be working once more.
It's just like old times! Thanks UT!

ETA Make that three Emails.

Do you think boob pictures would help them look favorably on the Cellar?

[Undertoad]

It simply cannot hurt.

I chose not to receive any Cellar emails. I just click "New Posts".

[xoxoxoBruce]

Me too.

[Gravdigr]

Me, too, neither.
