    Re: Not receiving notification emails

    Have another look at your email. The system burped a pile of notifications into my inbox a few minutes ago. This is what passes for normal in the wonderfully wacky world at the Excel Forum.

    Hi Glenn

    Thanks for response. When I say suddenly, I meant a couple of days ago.

    Beyond clicking Settings (upper right hand corner of all pages) then going to General settings (left hand frame) and checking Messaging & Notification I wouldn't know. Perhaps the system burped there, too.

    When all else fails I usually contact a Moderator or Admin.

    Re: Not receiving notification emails

    It gives me the following message:

    sintek, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

    Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
    If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

    Yeooo!!! I'm locked out, too.

    Try contacting shg, JBeaucaire FDibbins or 6StringJazzer who are all on here very frequently. I see that another Mod, Richard Buttrey, is online at the moment...

    Have you tried what Glenn Kennedy suggests in post #14? That's where I would go next.

    Re: Not receiving notification emails

    There are two ways off the top of my head. The long way ... Click members list at the top of any page and sear for specific name(s) or .... faster ... click Quick links also at the top. The drop down item "Who's online" should get you started. Unfortunately I don't recall how to get a list with the person's authorization status listed except through members list.

    I just noticed FDibbins is online now.

    Re: Not receiving notification emails

    sintek, hoe gaan dit?

    I have checked your profile and cannot see anything obvious amiss, I will push this up to the tech team
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    Regards

    Hallo Daar FDibbins.

    Dit gaan baie goed dankie, en self?

    Thank you for your response. Appreciate the time. Very annoying to have to log on and refresh each time to see if there have been in responses to posts.

    Re: Not receiving notification emails

    Hi sintek


    _A) Have you checked in your settings that you have the correct E mail
    Settings --- Edit Email & Password


    _B) Are you aware that you can use your User Control Panel as an alternative to refreshing:
    The User Control Panel is very reliable and has always worked even when many other things have not.
    Three ways to get to it
    _2_ User CP ( User Control Panel, UCP ) Button
    or
    _1_ Settings Button
    or
    _3_ Link http://www.excelforum.com/usercp.php

    Posts that you subscribe to with recent replies will be shown typically under
    Subscribed Threads with New Posts
    If you Hit View all Subscribed Threads you will see all your subscribed threads in one go, ( with those with the most recent replies at the top).

    If you look down the list of Threads in the Sub Forum Suggestions for Improvement, then you can sometimes find similar Threads there on your problem.
    If you have a very similar problem to that in an existing Thread , then you could post a reply in that Thread to bring the Theme up again.
    But your problem appears very unusual. There were many problems in the past with E mail notifications. But currently you seem to be the only one with a problem
    If you find no Threads discussing a problem like yours, then start a new Thread there.
    If you choose to start a new Thread there on your current problem, then make sure you include the URL bar reference to this Thread
    HTML Code: 
    ( Possibly a Moderator will then move and merge this Thread to that Sub Forum )
    Hope you get the problem solved. Having no E mail notification can be very frustrating.
    But the User Control Panel is a very good alternative. Many regulars use that as an alternative anyway to E Mail Notifications.
