Forum not sending notifications to my email
I'm not sure where to post this question, but...
Lately, I've had a problem where responses to questions I've posted on the Forum are not generating a notification sent to my email address even though I check the Notify me check box.
I've checked spam filtering and the emails are not getting caught there. They just don't seem to be making to me.
Is this a wider problem or am I the only one?
Thanks

I answer this without quoting, just to see if it works.
Can you make a screenshot of your notification settings?

Here they are. FWIW, I didn't get a notification of your response.

Re: Forum not sending notifications to my email
There are different notifications, you can get them via forum login or by email.

Re: Forum not sending notifications to my email
I am not sure which forum skin you are using or what page you are looking at, but I see a much more extensive set of choices. I am using the ProSilver forum skin.
I do not want e-mail notifications, so I do not have them checked. If you want them all that is needed is to check the appropriate boxes.

I'm sorry, I think I misunderstood chrisb's earlier request. I've attached my notification settings from the Board Preferences page. Not sure what the third column entitled Notifications is for, but I notice it's missing from GeneFC's screenshot.

Re: Forum not sending notifications to my email
I just checked. The third column shows up if I select the default "FreeCAD" board style, and does not show up if I select the "Prosilver" style.
No idea why.

You may want to check "Someone quotes you in a post" too.

Re: Forum not sending notifications to my email
Can anyone confirm if email notifications are working for them and/or that this is just an issue at the user configuration level, or is there a problem I need to look at?
Re: Forum not sending notifications to my email
The only thing I have checked is email for private messages. I believe I always get those and no others. I just got a PM email about 2 days ago.
