I had to turn OFF
email notifications for Forum/Thread subscriptions and they will have to stay OFF for quite some time.
Unfortunately, a bunch of members have flagged our notification emails as SPAM even though they have to OPT-IN to receive those notifications and as a result we have been blacklisted by many of the larger email services, like gmail etc.
This means i will have to spent days/weeks going back an forth with a bunch of blacklist service providers to get this straightened out.

Thanks for your hard work. I'm guessing that some folks have that flagging automated and don't even realize it happened? I'm hoping?

I had an odd thing happen with gmail and the PM this AM, a member PM'ed me and I got the gmail, but I couldn't find the PM anywhere in my 914world personal message page.

Thanks,
@SirAndy !
I haven't received e-mail notifications for a few years; seems like Optimum (Altice) rejects any auto emails generated through a Verizon server (so one techie told me). Some sort of Pi$$ing match, probably. Tried calling their Customer Service folks a few times, but gave up.

@SirAndy - very sorry to hear this.
Yup - I learned the first week that I joined (several years ago now), that I subscribe to so many topics so I can find them later that my mailbox was exploding . . .stopped that quickly. I figure that if I need to know how the dice are rolling, I'll just sit at the table and watch closely. . .
We appreciate all that you and the administrators do - more than words/emojis can express.

Sorry to hear shit like this happened, Andy.
Nobody should have to spend precious time to deal with other people's F-ups. It's even worse when you reach the age of limited headroom

Thanks SirAndy for all the work. Keeping a 914 site running likely is harder than keeping a 914 running!

I just saw it after asking Andy whatz-up.
Too bad a few ruined it for all, & caused Andy such headaches.
I've been so buried this year & 2019-20 working 10-16/7 days that I've had no time for anything, but had wondered why my 914world subscriptions weren't coming anymore.
I just saw that they were all no email notifications when Jeff Bowlsby PMed to check up on how I was doing with COVID & all - & I got that email notification on PMs at least. Good guy to check up on us.

Hope you can get it back to normal!

Almost makes the pm system useless. If you don't visit the site for s month, you could miss a lot of important messages.

So for a bit of clarification, pms will not work?

any idea when and if the email notification may come back on? I really miss seeing stuff.
