Resolved - Not getting DLA emails
« on: January 09, 2015, »
I am not getting any instant emails for PMs or the Boards have asked to be notified upon.

Any help or guidance would be great!  Thanks~

I've already checked my spam folder for my email provider and dont see any email from DLA.  I even tried an entirely different email account and that didnt work either.

Resolved by switching to a Gmail account.

It might be relate to the fact the site recently moved and some dns might not be updated yet.

also look for You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login as the sender.

Do my settings appear to be correct?

I joined before the site moved and had set up a notify on boards and even then didnt get any emails.

I don't see any issues with your settings.

For a test, can you setup a gmail email account and change your profile email to that new address?

After you make a change do a test post to see if it works.

moving to Gmail it worked.   Now I am going to try forwarding to my regular ISP.

My notifications aren't working either. Well, I turned on notifications for the first time in late December as  a test and got one. But it would seem that since the forum moved to a new server, they stopped. I've had problems in the past with Craigslist messages not appearing when using Hotmail--not even in Spam--and changing to my Gmail account worked fine.

So, I tried changing my email address on this forum to my Gmail, but I'm still not getting any notifications. I assume I don't need to turn on the "Allow users to email me" option?

Add me to the list and I tried a bunch of things already to fix it.  In the past, server changes affected my email but it only took a few days and it worked it self out.  I won't worry for now.

I am being active on the site, but I'd like an extra safety net.

No notifications here either.  Been that way for some time now.  Also can't get to this site via TapaTalk either.  Can't connect to server.  That has been going on for a few days now I think.
