Emails from MN

I haven't had a single email from MN alerting me to activity on Threads I'm On or Threads I'm Watching for at least 48hrs. Am I being given the cold shoulder or is there something amiss?

No cold shoulder here - we'd much prefer you to be getting these alerts and so this doesn't sound right at all...

There's no point in us asking for your browser because really, it's not a browser issue, is it? It's an email issue.

So, first of all, can we check that you're settings are in line with what you want to receive from us? You can do this by going to your preferences, scrolling down to 'talk options' and checking that both of the boxes (Notify me when others post on threads I'm watching and
Notify me when others mention me in a thread) are ticked? If not, give them a tick and click save. If they're already ticked, can you have a rummage around in spam, see if anything is ending up in there?

Sorry for delay in replying, @LornaMumsnet - it's been a busy day, but can report that like Ontheboardwalk my preferences are ticked and nothing in my spam folder. As you say, it's not a browser issue, but if it's relevant I'm using Outlook for emails. I've also looked in webmail but there's nothing there either.

What is seem?

I've had delays in mail before but not 48 hours without a mail.

Same here, no emails re new posts in the last few days, and I've not changed any settings.

boardwalk - what I meant was that of all the thousands of MNers there were so few of us affected by this glitch. No conspiracy theory or paranoia on my part, just an observation.

I'm using the app and Every time I try and watch a thread the whole app closes. Anything I can do mumsnet?

I hadn't even noticed to be fair but just checked and the last email I had was 1st November. I've got a hotmail email address if that helps at all.

I am not getting updates by email either.......

Motoko · 06/11/2017 22:02

Glad I'm not the only one. Last email notification I got was last Wednesday.

It's annoying, because I use the emails to keep up with the threads I'm watching, rather than going via the 'Threads I'm Watching' link on the site.

So MNHQ, any idea yet what's causing this?

I have not had one since 1 November which is what has led me here.

Hey Optimist,

Sorry for the slug-slow late update!

Tech had a look and found the issue - they'll be working on a fix and we hope to have it released soon (we haven't got a timescale yet but we're hopeful that it won't take too long).

Yet I got an email today from MN asking if I'm finding my way around the site ok, if I'm settling in.

I've been here over ten years.

Report
Motoko · 12/11/2017 19:30

Well, I'm still not getting any. It's been 10 days now.

I wonder why it's only affecting some of us.
