Emails from MN

[Optimist1]

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?

[Optimist1]

You have a point there, BenLui - we all have slightly different ways of using the system and different expectations of it, too!

[BenLui]

Optimist one reason only four out all the thousands of MNers reported the issue might be that lots of MNers moved to having an MN specific email account post Jeffery.

I only check my MN account occasionally, usually if I’ve reported a post and am wondering about the outcome. I wouldn’t notice if roundup emails stopped.

I'm getting them now thanks, but they've changed in that the thread title is now in the email subject. I don't think this was the case before.

[Optimist1]

Thanks - they're starting to trickle through now.

Yes, I've started getting emails this morning. The only thing is, I used to get it in a digest form, with several threads in the one email, but now, they're all coming through as separate emails. My inbox this morning was flooded with them!

Still, it's better than no emails.

Thank you!

So, good news! Tech has released the fix now. You may get a few lost emails turning up, but all should be resolved...

Sorry for the faff, folks.

I've just started receiving watched e-mails again!

[Optimist1]

Thanks, @LornaMumsnet - it's good to know that work is still in progress. Strangely I received two TIO emails a little while ago - neither of them had had posts for many days, though, and no emails in respect of TIO threads that are more active.

[LornaMumsnet]

Hello,

Tech released a fix on Friday for @ tagging and they're still looking at TIO/TIW. We'll keep you updated, really sorry for the (understandable) frustration that this is causing.

[Optimist1]

Flaming frustrating, that's what it is! It really affects my enjoyment of the site - being alerted to action on threads I'm on or watching keeps the flow of ideas much more natural than having to check the individual sections every time I come on the site. Poor show, MN.

[Motoko]

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

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

[CrochetBelle]

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.

[engineersthumb]

Same problem no emailsuch from threads im watching or on.

[BuggerOffAndGoodDayToYou]

I'm getting emails from Mumsnet but none notifying me of activity on watched threads.

[LornaMumsnet]

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).

[Optimist1]

@LouMumsnet, @LornaMumsnet - any update for us on this please?

[BessMarvin]

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

[Motoko]

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?

[happypoobum]

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

[LunarGirl]

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.

[rizlett]

Mines been the same - no emails since Thursday 2 Nov.

[TrampyCat]

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

[Ontheboardwalk]

Ah apologies optimist I completely mis read your post, please ignore my drunken rantings

Yeah it does seem weird it's just a couple of us, I was expecting s big thread of people.

Apologies again

[Optimist1]

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.
