This is not really a problem, more an irritation........

I have quite a few threads marked as favourites so any new posts are emailed to me in case I can't get online but what drives me mad with say the F1 thread is every time I post I get an email telling me what I just posted arghhhhhh

Rob - couldn't you create a rule on your email box?

For example, if the email contains ROB IS THE STIG then delete it straight away? That should allow all other emails to come through but not the notifications for what you've posted?

Do the emails have the username of who posted?

See if you can set a rule to move them into a separate folder first, just so you can give it a week or two to make sure the rule only affects ffst emails with your name in them.

Because I have push email on my phone all newsletters go into my newsletters folder so that my phone isn't buzzing at all hours to let me know there's an email. I also do the same for Apple receipts and o2 bills, Forum emails, and spam.

My newsletters one just filters any email with "Unsubscribe" or "stop receiving these emails" into the folder.

Occasionally they get mis-labelled, but I check them manually once a week to be on the safe side.

I don't really use any forum notifications any more, I only ever use Tapatalk

I've checked out your account and everythings set up ok. They're not just getting sent to your spam folder or something?

It seems that no emails are being sent by the forum at all. Chris/Scotty - are the mail servers OK?

I've changed no settings, and have received 3 private messages today, but the board didn't send any email notifications at all.

My emails always go into my junk inbox even when I mark them as safe

I got an email the other day from Focus STOC telling me there is only 1 week left to purchase ford fair tickets... maybe this forum could send out a generic email to remind people

Strange...

I'm using a Google Mail account (Google Apps) and have searched for FordFiestaST.co.uk - the last email I received from the site was on the 20th Feb. I've not changed any email settings either here or on Google since then.

I'm thinking potentially DNS issues at the server end, if it can't find where the email should be sent to.

Is your email account hosted on the same server, Chris?

Very odd - no emails whatsoever, and they don't appear to be hitting the Google Mail server at all - none of my filters are being triggered...

We still don't seem to be getting any emails notifying us of PM's/ comments on favourite threads etc? It did used to work?

Can someone look into this as I like to know when I have a PM as I don't want the person waiting ages for a reply!
Thanks

I've just sent a test PM to myself, and the email has come through as normal:



Given that they're still being sent out, I can't really answer as to why they're being bounced by you guys's email accounts.

I can only guess that some of your addresses are wrongly rejecting the site emails as spam without it even appearing in your junk folders for some reason.

Could you let me know where did that comment you've posted come from please Bexx? I can't see anything on either the FB or twitter pages and no one with that name is registered on the site. Also, I haven't had anyone contacting myself to say they're having problems registering so we can't really do anything at the moment to help.

Just to comment on this, I registered with the site with the same email address as I use now - it hasn't changed (in fact my email address hasn't changed for near on 8 years), and I don't get emails from the site any more. I haven't changed any settings on my profile, email account or anything like that.

The last email I had from the site was the 20th February, and I received PM's all the way through April, May, and June.

Are all those not receiving emails on GMail/Hotmail accounts at all? I'm wondering if the fordfiestast.co.uk domain has a correct SPF record? My domain is powered by Google Apps so uses the Google Mail framework...

It needs sorting if new members aren't bring authorised correctly!!

I use hotmail, I used to get an email when I got a PM, but it went into my junk folder.

Now I don't get anything at all

It's looking like the classic untrusted domain stuff again.

If you're sending email directly from the server then hotmail and google need to know it's genuine. This is set up nowadays via an SPF record in DNS.

Yahoo are more lenient in their domain checking whereas hotmail and google are right on it.

Chris's email was bound to come through as its on the same domain.

There's definitely an email delivery problem and so far by asking those affected it does seem to be Hotmail and Google accounts (either directly or indirectly, ntlworld and my own domain are Google Apps based sites and still use the Google mail infrastructure).

Just using the tools at mxtoolbox.com, the site has no SPF records which is almost certainly causing this issue.

Apologies for not posting on here for the last few days - just trying to ctach up as much as I can. I've just tried redirecting the automated emails to come from my own FFST email acccount rather than the server one, and trying to get them to come through to my hotmail account but without any success. At least some of you seem to be getting them to come through now, so there has been an improvement for some even if not all.

With regards to people not getting their accounts upgraded promptly enough...

The payments all come through Scott so I don't get to see them. Normally Scott would approve them fairly quickly, but hasn't been on much recently due to moving. Because there's occasions when he won't be on straight away, there is a note on the payment page asking people to drop me a PM if they haven't had there account upgraded within 24 hours. I know this isn't ideal... but... put simply if I'm not aware that soemone has made payment then I'm not in a position to help out. I hope this explains things a little better.

As previously stated, there's no one with that name registered on the site, so if it's the case that they're waiting to be upgraded then I really need to know what name they are on the site under so I can upgrade the right account.

If it's a case that they cannot register on the site, then there's no accounts in the queue of failed accounts on the server that have bounced and not managed to successfully register, so I can't find them that way.

Otherwise, someone needs to give me some contact details for them please so I can try to help them register.

And still no comment despite replying all over the rest of the forum, this place is a sinking ship!!

Really losing the love for this place with all the niggles and lack of leadership and promotion etc, shame coz it used to be so good on here

I spent a bit of time last night on another forum and I was signed up and posting within 5mins....

These issues are currently being addressed. The current software capability is very limited.

With regards to posting in 5 minutes. The restriction of membership has meant this has been put in place on the majority of forum threads. Some forums are still read/write. Due to having to link membership it means this has to be done manually. This is something that is being addressed going forwards.

I don't really understand the negative comment of "sinking ship". This site is always less active during the winter, as previously pointed out. People also move on and others arrive. This is how forums work. Input is always appreciated and will be discussed.
