Moderators viking8x6 Posted June 18 Moderators Report Share Posted June 18 It appears that something in the system is broken right now, as this problem seems to be affecting everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BootmanLA Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 39 minutes ago, viking8x6 said: It appears that something in the system is broken right now, as this problem seems to be affecting everyone. And as someone who manages a system that also uses email notifications: there are multiple points at which this could be failing, some within the control of the site management and some not, so it's not always easy to diagnose. Typically, what happens is that someone does something on this site, and the end result is an email notification. But it could be the forum software isn't properly registering the initial "trigger" in the first place. It could be that the forum software is not able to communicate with the host operating system where the email "dispatching" program resides - possibly due to a configuration change on one end or the other. It could be that the host's email dispatch program has locked up and isn't accepting messages. It could be that the email program was configured to use a particular mail server for sending, and that server's got issues. It could be that the company that contracted with the email server company has switched email service but forgot about this program using the old service. And so on. I get the frustration, but I'm not sure that not getting notifications that a thread here has been updated is crisis-level stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators drscorpio Posted June 21 Moderators Report Share Posted June 21 Moderator's Note: This is a problem that only the admin can address. Unfortunately, he is out of pocket for a few days. Hopefully, he can address this some time late next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cub84 Posted July 2 Report Share Posted July 2 Is this also affecting new sign-ups? I was going to suggest joining to someone I’ve been chatting to but just noticed on the homepage that it says the newest member was back on June 11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators rawTOP Posted August 15 Administrators Report Share Posted August 15 There were a few weeks when my server got on one (of many) block lists. If your mail provider uses that block list you would have been affected. It looks like it started around July 19th and was resolved the first week of August. But it looks like the server got blacklisted again a couple days ago. I've submitted a request to get off, but need to look into how it's happening. Hopefully I can find some time the next day or so to pour over a mail log and look for things that are suspicious. Anyway, email sent during a block doesn't get resent. It just never gets to you. So in the case of registration, you'll need to re-register. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators viking8x6 Posted August 15 Moderators Report Share Posted August 15 For what it's worth, all notification emails to me have gone missing since the initial outage sometime in (I think) early June. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
