Not getting emails when someone pms me?
« on: January 05, 2012, 12:57:24 AM »
Ever since the forum was upgraded to forum.dansdeals.com (it seems), im finding that unlike in the past that when someone used to pm me i got an instant email, now it doesnt seem to come right away. For example I got a pm 3 hours ago, yet I still haven't received an email. Is this something that only im having, or have others had this as well?

Check this page. Is the option 'Notify by email every time you receive a personal message:' set to 'Always'?

Whose your email provider?
+ 1.

Can't say I'm having the same issue. I seem to be getting the emails instantly. Can't think of any reason why it wouldn't be instant. Anyone else having a delay?

Yahoo
Still waiting for a gmail invite ;)
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Also, my missing emails from yesterday showed up into my inbox today, at the correct times that they were sent.
