    Default Oh e-mail, where art thou?

    I subscribe to topics you know to save me having to look at the forums constantly but since yesterday morning I have had no e-mail updates, why is this? Was there a really important reason or did it just happen?

    You might want to check your subscription types, the email you use and also your bulk folder. If you have the option, create a filter so any emails from whatever mailer sends them go into a specific folder. There's a good chance someone out there has been dumb enough to mark subscription emails as spam.

    Is it just me, or would the thread title make a cool little intro thing for Strong Bad?

    Their all set to Instant notification, my account just filters all my e-mail to Outlook Express which sorts them into the correct folder.

    However the e-mails are not reaching Yahoo and I do have mail filter off cos its a pain...

    The question's already been answered, so might as well spam.

    Dear Psychotic,
    I think that as the question Baloki asked has been answered, you should spam the ever loving crap out of this thread.

    Spam Baloki's thread, eh Princess Loserpants? Well, that in theory sounds like a good idea, but there's these people, well I say people but I mean robots. Psychopathic robots. They're called "Cid's Knights" who happen to enjoy closing spammed threads. Hey look, here's Homestar come to say something irritating. Cue the paper.

    No, I don't think that we're going to resort to spamming up Baloki's thread.

    I too sometimes get a lack of email for my subscribed threads and it's really bothersome when that happens. Luckily for me, my lack of email was always caused by something that the Admins changed here in EoFF so it would get corrected when I complained about it. I'm getting a definite lack of email for my subscribed threads today as well though, but I don't think that it's because of anything that might have been changed here at EoFF because some are filtering through. Maybe it's just something going on on Yahoo's end, Baloki.

    I'm pretty sure Yahoo! don't block any emails, they just filter them into the Bulk Mail folder. Check that folder and if you see anything ever move into there, then check it off and click on 'Not Spam'. I had to do that recently with my Yahoo! email as my CricketWeb emails were being classified as junk.

    Yahoo stopped filtering it into Bulk for me when I fixed the email problem with the forums a few weeks ago
