Email notifications from forum don't work

[commodore]

Sorry for posting this here, as it's not directly TC related... I haven't been receiving email notifications from the forum (on subscribed replies etc.) for a while now. Is this a bug or was the feature turned off? On my email account's side, everything seems fine, and the notifications don't go to a spam folder or anything like that.

Did you enable e-mail notifications in your forum's user control panel? Note the distinction between notifications and e-mail. The former means only to notify in the forum while only the latter sends an e-mail.

Do you use a gmail address? Perhaps this still applies: Troubles with GMail.

Thanks. The second column (email) was not selected. I checked them all now, we'll see what happens. I don't remember turning those off, though.

P.S.: On GMX, not Gmail.

All free mail services tend to filter out similar looking mass e-mails. If there are too many users of a specific free mail service subscribing to forum notifications, they may look like spam to the automatic filters.
