Oh e-mail, where art thou?

[Citizen Bleys]

However, if anyone is receiving emails of any kind, please let us know.

I'm getting a bunch of emails about penis enlargement products. Like, hundreds a day. But that could just be from subscribing to all of those penis enlargement mailing lists.

Basically, God hates people who subscribe to threads.

why exactly do you subscribe to threads, again? I would think that if someone has replied to it recently then you might see the thread near the top of the forum.

[Loony BoB]

Subscribe without email is the way to go - that way you get all the threads you've posted in in one place.

I'm guessing people subscribe for a bunch of reasons, ranging from not being online often enough, not remembering to check forums (or threads) that they usually skip, wanting emails so they can be notified as soon as someone has replied to their threads, etc...

Turns out hotmail users should still get their emails, we're still working on why gmail/yahoo etc. don't.

And Mark: Man did I walk right into that one.

* I subscribe to threads that I want to keep an eye on for moderating purposes.
* I check my mail more often that EoFF so I know faster if I have to check on something on the forums. In fact I almost never go into EoFF on it's own. Saves time this way.

It seems that someone on Yahoo has hit the mark as spam button and EoFF has been marked as spam. Yes I did spoof EyesonFF.com e-mail address to test this. I can check again if you want though?

It's not that, since I don't receive mails from EoFF at either my uni account or even my completely unfiltered home ISP account. I'd guess there's something about the way the server's configured to send that's wrong and everything is rejecting it, except, typically, Microsoft's broken implementation

Besides, even if it was marked as spam on Yahoo, we'd just see it filtered into our Bulk folders instead, it doesn't just vanish.
