    Email subscriptions not working

    The email subscriptions do not seem to work.  I assume I am supposed to be notified when ne posts appear in threads I have enabled subs on, but I am not getting any emails - not in my spam bin either.  Is it broken or have I misunderstood the function?

    It feels like I have whined and moaned about broken features non stop but I am only trying to help, so sorry :-)

    Dont worry someone has to do it so they can tweak the site until it works like it should.

    But can't that someone be somebody else? :)

    I've got this on e-mail subscription now, so can someone please post a test post in here and I'll see what happens.

    They seem to be working fine for me, I'm almost ready to turn them off.. allthough the email *bing* is nice, i can pretend i'm important enough for emails, and it isnt spam!

    Try following your username link at the top of the page. This will allow you to manage your personal settings for the forums.

    Go to the "Email" tab and you will find a check box to receive notifications which is unchecked by default.

    I hope this resolves the problem.

    Oh, and in the same place verify that your private email address is set correctly.
