No email notifications ?

[Harlequin]

Indeed. The above post was announced as a topic reply.

Has anything been changed recently?

Because I've not been getting any email notifications in the last few days.

Nor I, for over a week now.

Not sure what's happening here, it's Muttley's bag really.

I think the Gmail account it's using get's blocked occasionally in case it's spamming. Doesn't help that there's loads of bounces because people's email addresses are dead but they're still subscribed to stuff.

I can see several notifications going out to KlaxonCow in the last few days, but none to Harly's address.

Not a lot I can do about it though, as I have no mail server of my own we're stuck with using Gmail.

I'm receiving the notifications once more now that you've changed the outgoing email address.

Thanks for that, Muttley. Problem solved, at least at my end of things.

[Harlequin]

Yep. I am getting them again now.

[KlaxonCow]

Okay, I possibly spoke too soon. They seem to have stopped coming again in the last few days.

I also wrote too soon.

Ah, well...

Mind you, I've happily received email notifications for both of your replies here.

And a bunch of them just came through for other threads on Bleatings, all in one go - as if it was a days-old "delayed reaction" or something.

So, to be honest, I don't really know if it is or isn't working now. Let's just say that it's being rather temperamental and strange.

Anyway, whatever is going wrong, I don't think it's anything to do with the forums themselves. The new "yakyak.forum" gmail hasn't been blocked, or I'd be getting absolutely nothing at all (as was happening when I first posted).

It's some ISP or something fucking about with the delivery process behind the scenes, it seems.

FFS, are you lot not reading what I post or something?

It's Google blocking things occasionally. We must be tripping one of their anti-spam triggers or something. It always starts working again if I actually log in to the account.

I'm 100% reading what you wrote.

But I've just realised, though, that I completely misunderstood what you were saying.

I thought you meant that someone else - not Google - was blocking the gmail account externally as an anti-spam thing. But now I understand. It's Google themselves who block gmail accounts that trigger their anti-spam what-not. So when you login to Gmail, this sorts it out.

Apologies. I was listening to you intently, but just wasn't hearing you correctly.
