For some reason, email notifications did work, for the first month or so on registering here, but some reason now they're not being sent. Even when replies are being made to the threads. I do have the threads automatically subscribed when I reply to them, and I have it set to I should receive an instant email notification (like previously). I never changed the settings, but some reason it's just not working.

I have to go to my member profile and view my posts in order to see replies. What's causing it? :(

Have you whitelisted webhostingtalk.com?

I never had to in the past, they always went to my inbox. But now I don't get any email, even on seperate email addresses. What's the email they're sent from, I'll try whitelisting, but I doubt it'l change it.

I added *@webhostingtalk.com to both my Yahoo, Bt-Yahoo and Live emails, never worked. I never got an email. I then made an email on my hosting account, I never got it, even after adding it to the whitelist, I even then tried just using a forwarder to another email, same thing. Now, I've tried Gmail and some reason it works fine, without whitelisting it. Weird.

Thanks anyway :)

Filters on my end are NOT the problem. I am using my own mail server.
