Email notification

Post by canyncarvr »

Sir:
I have not received a post notification via email for some weeks. My profile is configured for notification and the email addy is correct.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Is your email address correct? Have you recently changed providers?

All done. Still no notifications being received.

Spamblocker software? No

Barracuda firewall? Yes. No kdxrider emails in quarantine.

It happened about forum 'update' time, come to think of it.

Mailer used: Eudora 6.2..same mailer, same version that worked last time it DID work. No MicroSoft Outcrapper used.

Sorry, Inda. I think, 'It had to be youuuuuuuuuu'

:wink:

The only thing I changed was graphics... so if you can explain to me how that could affect your notifications... I'm all ears! :lol:

It's a matter of unintended (probably) consequences.

Kind'a like Bart's butt! :wink:

It will all start working again someday...and, again, no one will have done ANYthing! :shock:

I know more about Barracuda than I did this morning.

The 'block' threshold was set to '7'. That is the default. What I did NOT know is a blocked message will simply go away. There will be no notification, it does not show up in quarantine.

It has BEEN a '7' ever since the Barracuda was installed...quite a few months ago.

The blocking factor is currently 'disabled'.

If that does not work, I will whitelist admin@.. and see what that does.

The search contiiiinnuuuueeeesss.......... :?

**Update** (cuz I know you are BREATHLESS at the prospect...)

No receipt of post with blocking disabled.

I now have admin-at- k d xrider dot net in the 'whitelist' box and thus wait breathlessly myself.

Damn fish, indeed!

**Further Update**

Am now getting notifications after the admin addy was whitelisted with the Barracuda.

So...it wasn't blacklisted, spammed, blocked or quarantined, but whitelisting fixed it!

Thank you Spam Control!!!

FWIW, the ISP guy said it didn't matter if it was 'no real name'. I asked.

That in reference to my asking him about a required valid 'From:' line.

Anyway, whitelisting worked.
