Notification of Posts by email
« on: Thursday 01 August 13 03:18 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I have noticed that some of the replies to my posts in the past did not result in an email to me advising of the reply (most did advise me).  Is there a "rule" about this or is the onus on me to keep checking my topic.  I ask because some times I have to go away for several days; and I do not see my PC for that period.

Hiya Bob,

Depending on your settings under Profile > Email Notification you may only be getting one notification per board or topic and not subsequent ones (until you visit the site).

If you set your settings as below, you should find each and every one coming through.

Bob,

Just a quick follow-up. Did it work in the end?
