I don't receive email notifications

[shekh]

It works for private messages but not for forum threads.
I have "instant notification" option. Checked spam folders: nothing there.
This continues about 2..4 months.

[stax76]

Same here.

[gonca]

Don't get notifications either

[GCRaistlin]

Same for me.

[ng4ever]

Same here as well. :(

[Selur]

here too,... (which is really annoying,..)

Cu Selur

Ps.: PM notification on the other hand works fine,...

[Selur]

PM notifications aren't working either now.

Cu Selur

[gonca]

I'm glad its not just me

[Selur]

Is anyone looking into this or should come to terms with that this isn't working?

Cu Selur

[gonca]

Come to terms that this is the way it is

I got an EMail from the D9 yesterday(user attempt to send me PM, PM box full), the only option I have enabled is Receive Email from Administrators.
So, its working now. [I dont remember tha last time I got an EM, long time]

[Selur]

Seems like the daily email notifications do work too,...

[Selur]

btw. any updates on getting "instant notification" working again?

[Selur]

(just noticed) daily updates stopped working,...

[VoodooFX]

(just noticed) daily updates stopped working,...

Those never worked for me, I was getting only some random notifications every ~few months. That's why I use RSS feeds.

[Swede]

Hmm, there is something wrong with the emails from the forum, it seems that noone is getting any mails whatsoever. I'm currently investigating.

[Swede]

Found the problem and corrected it. We should now be back to where we've been the last year or so. Regarding the "instant notification" I have to get back to you..

[Boulder]

Thank you Swede, seems to work :)

[Selur]

Nice, since I switched all my notifications to daily notification, I should at least get daily updates.

Thanks!

[Selur]

Just wanted to confirm that I just got my first email in ages. :)

[GCRaistlin]

Email notifications seem to be broken again.

[Selur]

I still get the daily notifications.

Sadly some providers wont accept mail from hosts without a reverse DNS and since I can't get one it will not work unless we use some paid service. Luckily there arent many of them around, so far I've identified three (t-online.de, bigpond.com, gmx.net).
The bigger ones, like gmail and hotmail, as well as *many* others accepts mail from 'non-reverseble-IPs' if they are correct and uses SPF and DKIM.

In your case GCRaistlin, since you use gmail, I don't know why you don't receive them. In the maillogs I can see that they are delivered to gmail:
(Apr 4 00:08:04 hp400 postfix/smtp[150592]: 2B0112002003: to=<XXXXXX@gmail.com>, relay=gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[74.125.131.26]:25, delay=1.3, delays=0.01/0.06/0.38/0.8, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (250 2.0.0 OK 1712182084 h14-20020a05651211ce00b00516c882b6d6si95148lfr.615 - gsmtp))

GMail is notoriously paranoid and manic depressive what comes to incoming email. I get the notification emails all right, but I have a forwarding email address whose messages just disappear into thin air sometimes. Sometimes the exact same message comes through without any issues.

Email notifications are back since I wrote my last post. Before that, there were no notifications for almost a month:
https://i123.fastpic.org/thumb/2024/0407/72/211cd0f52985450b1d13eefc3c16d372.jpeg (https://fastpic.org/view/123/2024/0407/211cd0f52985450b1d13eefc3c16d372.jpg.html)
I didn't visit the forum for a long time before that (for more than a month).

[Swede]

Good, we'll close this then.
And, I might have found a way to send mails to the domains I talked about (t-online.de, bigpond.com, gmx.net) by relaying just those to a free smtprelay by using postfix transport. Let's see if this works. The reason I can't use that relay for all mails is just that we're sending too many mails per month to use the free plan.

[GCRaistlin]

The same issue again: if I don't visit the forum for a long time (I believe for 21 days) notifications stop. My last visit was 2024-04-07, the last notification I received was from 2024-04-28.

[GCRaistlin]

At the present moment, notifications are being sent once per day, regardless of what the notification mode is really set to ("Instant" in my case).
