E-mail notifications

[Laser4G63]

For some reason, I am not longer getting notified when someone replies to a thread I posted in or for PMs. I haven't changed the options and was getting the e-mail before a few days ago.

Thanks, for bringing this up, I've actually been looking into this already and will do so more this evening.

Best I can tell the cause of this is my moving things to a new server and thus new IP and this new address not quite yet trusted by other ISPs for outgoing mail. When I get some time I'll get the SPF/DKIM stuff kicking again, which should help this along.

Mail is going out and delivery is definitely working, but I think some ISPs are currently falsely flagging the stuff as not-quiet trusted.

Yep, but it flags everything as neutral... What sucks is I tried signing up with AOL to be whitelisted and they threw it back saying that the reverse DNS for the server matches the emergency (or whatever) contact address, and thus I was denied.

It sucks. Email whitelisting for servers is a labyrinth.

I'll just have to get SPF/DKIM going for Sendmail and let it all age.

no longer getting pm notifications here on an att.net account.

I just implemented DKIM and SPF, so hopefully ISPs will stop flagging the messages as questionable. I've got a huge outbound queue of mail for AOL users that's backed up. Hopefully that'll flush soon.

Just to let you know Steve, I've been getting PM emails on my Yahoo account with no issues for awhile now...

Thanks, that's good to hear. Sounds like AT&T, Comcast, and AOL are the problem ones for now.

Soooo....after reading this *beep* for 5 mins they are basically saying to you to send more emails all the time and bug everyone and hope their are no complaints. Do it for 30 days and get back with us. Thanks AOL for being pricks...

I'm surprised AOL is still around. Really, who is with AOL? That is so 1997.

AOL still has some relevant and highly trafficked web sites. Engadget is one that I check out sometime. There are many many people that use AOL dial up since change is more difficult to deal with for millions of luddites.

Allow me to reiterate:

[c0nsumer]

There are well known users on this forum who still use @aol.com addresses.
