Sure can! First question is, are you getting other emails from us still? Did you previously get watched thread emails?

Motoko · 27/02/2018 01:08

I'm not either. They stopped coming in on Sunday. This is the 3rd time this has happened. I haven't changed any of my settings.

SophieLMumsnet · 27/02/2018 09:36

Hi, motoko - sorry about this, is this all emails? If you could also let us know what browser and device you're using, that would be great.

Dizzywizz · 27/02/2018 12:38

Hi, I am getting the daily digest and jobs emails, but not the ones you get when you watch a thread or are on one. I used to get them.

Same here. I noticed this a couple of days ago buy thought it was just me.

SophieLMumsnet · 27/02/2018 14:41

Thanks for letting us know! Could you tell us which browser and device you're both using?

Faze84 · 27/02/2018 17:05

Chrome. Honor 9.

DawnMumsnet · 27/02/2018 19:20

Thanks, @Faze84 - are you using the mobile site or the app?

@Dizzywizz and @Motoko can you also let us know which device you're using, which browser and also which version of the site? Hopefully there's a pattern to it.

We'll flag this back to our Tech team as soon as we hear back from you.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I use an iPhone and iPad, safari and I think I’m on the mobile version. Thanks

I don't get the daily emails, not the watched thread ones (I have opted out) but the ones you can tick the box to get - daily roundup? I wondered if I need to put the email address they come from in to my address book but I don't know what it is!

Faze84 · 28/02/2018 02:57

I always use the mobile site.

PastaOfMuppets · 28/02/2018 03:55

I haven't been receiving watched thread emails either (don't get any emails other than those normally anyway). I'm on the app and use a Samsung phone

KeziaOAP · 28/02/2018 07:20

Last email for watched threads Saturday 24th. PC/Firefox and Kindle.

FlissMumsnet · 28/02/2018 09:48

Hi There CotswoldStrife & PastaOfMuppets,

Thanks for letting us know you're having trouble with this too - sorry this is such a pain for you all.

We'll try to get this sorted for you just as soon as we can.

Do shout if there's anything else you think we need to know....

Faze84 · 28/02/2018 09:58

Yes last email for me was Saturday 24th feb for watched threads.

Motoko · 28/02/2018 10:11

Now that's odd. I'm only signed up for the watched thread notifications, and the ones where I've been mentioned in a post. I got the email telling me I'd been mentioned in this thread (only just seen it though, hence late reply) but I'm still not getting the other notifications.

I'm using Firefox, on a laptop, on the site.

FlissMumsnet · 28/02/2018 10:56

We've heard back from Tech now so can we just check (apologies if we're teaching Grandma how to suck eggs here) you've chosen the notifications you want in preferences

www.mumsnet.com/Talk?call=Preferences

this may be the culprit in some cases but also - could you check your spam folders as apparently mails can end up in there... even if they have gone into the inbox in the past helpful

Faze84 · 28/02/2018 11:12

Yes my email notifications were already set to on although i now know how to see 1000 messages on one page, winner. Checked spam and others, nothing from MN in there.

Dizzywizz · 28/02/2018 12:36

Yes my notifications were set, and nothing in spam.

KeziaOAP · 28/02/2018 21:49

My notifications are set to on, nothing in spam.

Motoko · 01/03/2018 01:55

Yes, just like all the other times, they're set to receive email notifications.

What I don't understand is although I'm not getting notifications for threads I'm watching or posted on, I AM getting notifications if someone @'s me in a post.

SophieLMumsnet · 01/03/2018 09:59

Ugh - sorry about this! Thanks for letting us know. Back to the drawing board we go, and we'll let you know what tech say. Thanks for bearing with us Flowers

CotswoldStrife · 01/03/2018 11:55

It's the newsletters that I'm not getting - I don't know why, I've tried resetting them again today.

SophieLMumsnet · 01/03/2018 13:43

Hello all - just to update; tech are working on a fix as we speak, so we'll let you know when it's been released.

Faze84 · 05/03/2018 14:50

Hey i seem to be getting the emails again. Have been for last 3 hours. So far so good thanks!!! Smile
