[mickiecake]

Anyone else having a problem with their thread reply emails? I didn't get any yesterday, or so far this morning. Just wondrin'!!

[JoanneNC]

Same here :(

[M&N]

I haven't gotten any in a while!

[kimis]

I was getting them until Sunday night. Does anyone know when they will start again? I miss them!

[Uncleromulus]

Haven't had any for weeks now--

[rotlex]

Not to say ditto, but ditto. I even tried "changing" my notification settings thinking something might reset. No dice. Haven't received a daily e-mail regarding posts in quite a while.

[tnkr mom]

Me too ME too no thread replies! I also tried changing stuff around and still nothing. I also am not directed to the todays Posts page just cycles
for-ev-a!!! So now I'm going through the Disboards home page to catch up on all thing Disney!!! Glad not just me, I was taking it personally!!!

[huggiebear23]

It comes in spurts with me. So annoying:headache:

[spicemom]

Have not gotten any in a long while either, when I did it was only once in a awhile.

[mba2000]

I did not get my authorization mail after registration. I'm unable to post reply in the forums.

[PoppyGirl]

Not since the 14th.

[hopare]

I thought my daughter did something to mess it up. Good thing I didn't say anything to her!

[KatMark]

I haven't gotten them in a couple of days either. Also, I can't change my avatar to a personal one...I can only choose one of theirs.

Me Too! Hopefully someone can help!

The emails are going out. Many people are recieving them. If you are not recieving them your ISP is choosing to block them. We are working witht he various ISP's to enable the delivery of mail but it takes time.


Please DON'T go in and try to change your email account in your DIS profile!!! You have to verify the change with an email from the DIS! Since you won't get the email you won't be able to verify it and then you end up in Registered User limbo until it can be fixed.

Please just be patient. :goodvibes You can always find out if there are new posts to your subscribed threads by going to your Subscription List-- Go up to the tool bar at the top, !uick Links on the top Right and select Subscribed Threads. If the thread is in bold then there are new posts.

I was advised on the CB to change my provider since the provider was the problem so I tried AOL, no emails then I tried my work provider, no emails. So now I am in limbo...can't post, can't receive emails...I don't even know if my provider is getting the info my provider requested I send because I can't get a response on any of three different email addresses. Can you recommend anything else to try?

[DizzDoll]

Thank you for explaining, lovestoscrap!!:thumbsup2 I haven't gotten any ALL WEEK and I was beginning to think it was because my feet smelled funny. I haven't even been getting the POTDs and I LOVE that thread!! Well, I'll be checking The Board during the day anyway so hope to catch up with y'all. Have a great day.:hug:

[praline3001]

I thought it was my computer acting up or I clicked some setting on accident. Glad to hear I am not the only one and someone is working on fixing the problem :goodvibes

[miki]

I just wanted to add that my post above is at count 1 because I even tried creating a new profile. I have tried everything. Can anyone give me some advice? Please?

[sl_underwood]

I am using yahoo and having the same problem. Hopefully it will all get worked out soon!

[LegoMom3]

I'm not getting them, again. They stopped shortly after the switch to the new server, then started coming again. Now it's been 3 days without any again.

My ISP isn't my e-mail provider - I use Yahoo mail and don't have anything blocked outright. Once in a while they will dump into the Bulk folder but I can still access them there. I am getting no DIS mail whatsoever.

Neither am I. I had the exact same thing. It all stopped, then I got it for a few days, and now it has stopped again. My provider is blocking them. Same with Yahoo. They are blocking them from even coming into their servers so they can't even get into your Bulk mail folder.

[disney54us]

I am not receiving them either! The thing about our ISP not letting them go through I don't get. Since before the 'upgrade' we were receiving them, then after we weren't the boards said they were working on that and a few days later everyone started receiving them again. then like:wizard: they were gone:confused3. I don't think anyone on thread killers united is receiving them either. So I don't think anything has changed w//our providers unless the boards change the way they are sending them through. They are not going to my junk mail folder either.

OK, now I'm thoroughly confused.... My "provider" is my local phone company, since I access the Internet through DSL (is that correct??). However I choose to use Yahoo for my primary e-mail accout. I go to the Yahoo web site to check my mail. As I said I have occassionally found DIS mail in the Bulk folder, but I click "Not Spam" and it starts putting them in my Inbox.

So, if I get mail at the Yahoo web site, how is my ISP involved???! :confused3

And on the same note, if Yahoo themselves is indeed blocking, WHY?!! I get some pretty nasty crap let through by Yahoo....why in the world would they block DIS mail.

SOMEONE?!!.....Help!

Would it help if I started using my DSL e-mail address? I have one, just don't use it much.

This is NOT an official DIS explaination, this is how my DH tried to sort of explain things to me:

The board switched servers so as I understand it (and I don't claim to understand it!) the emails are coming from a new "address". Since your ISP doesn't recognize the address but somehow sees it as a huge server it thinks it is spam so it is rejecting it completely. Now why it will let through emails from Nigerian addresses but not from the DIS I have NO IDEA--I guess Nigerian scammers have small servers?. But I think it is a long process of trying to contact each ISP and then try to convince them that we are not spammers and are a legit site and that people want to hear from us.

Again, this is just my DH trying to help me understand why I am not getting my PM notifications! And why it would do me no good to call Cox and yell and scream like I wanted to do last night!:rolleyes1

Of course, I also can't get ANY emails from Disneyshopping.com. NONE! DH finally just had to subscribe to them at work and forwards them to me. My ISP blocks them completely. I get tons of other catalog shopping emails but it will not allow Disneyshopping. I still don't understand that one either. And if you ever need any weight loss pills or enhancement meds, let me know--I have sources! :rolleyes:

I agree with you 100% regarding the slime Yahoo lets through. Porn - yes; Disney - no???:confused3 :eek: :sad2: Can you see something wrong with this picture???? :sick: Anyway, I'll keep checking in with the Boards during the day.

[lovetoscrap]

Yahoo is still a service provider. They still determine what they will allow through their address filters and what they won't. At this time they have decided not to allow the DIS address in.

I agree, I would love to know why some things are blocked and some aren't. If anyone knows how this process works I would love to hear an explaination--just use very small and simple words an speak s l o w l y. I don't understand geek! :)

Thank you. I just posted there.

[kimsuenew]

Yes, me again! I wasn't getting notification emails (at the same time everyone else was having problems this year, when something was switching over) and then it was back to normal and absolutely fine, but then the last 3 days or so I am back to no emails. :confused3 There is a glitch somewhere! My email program with unfortuanately let anything in/thru so that it not an issue!

[jenseib]

It would be nice if someone would post something on the tech boards so we actually knew why we weren't getting them.

As far as I know, MSN and hotmail have NOT recieved any notifications since the new server. Then as of Monday, yahoo, and AOL stopped getting them along with my "private" servers. Which if it is private, that means they have control over who they let and odn't, and still no disboard notifications.

Does anyone know who IS getting notifications?
