I just saw Tim's post here (http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,22137.new.html#top)...

The server isn't sending mail by the looks of things :)

I have some knowledge of these things if I can help at all guys.
Title: Re: not getting email notifications of pm's
Post by: Whoey on August 20, 2010, 08:30:04 PM
Esteban was looking into it, then the server went down.

AFAIK, nothing has changed, yet the sendmail seems to not work all of the sudden...  :ahhh  :poh:

seemed the server reboot fixed whatever the issue was... even if it didn't go as smooth as it should have.

Title: Re: not getting email notifications of pm's
Post by: eodtech on August 22, 2010, 06:02:51 PM
Same problem here, the way I fixed it was...

Go to profile

Erase your current email address

Save the profile

Open the profile

Re-enter an email address

Save the profile

I started getting emails again, as a matter of fact a couple that were day sold but had a recent time stamp of when they were sent.

Worked for me doing it this way.

Good luck

It seems to work for some and not for others, which makes it difficult to track down.

One thing you can try is to change your email settings, save the changes, then change them back.  That may work.

Looks like an old configuration "bug" coming to haunt us again after the php/forum migration/upgrade...
Title: Re: not getting email notifications of pm's
Post by: Whoey on February 07, 2011, 11:50:37 AM
yes, unfortunately I need Esteban to look at the server config (as it's more hsi thing than mine)... I think I asked before, but he may have gotten sidetracked.

Do some  :pok: :pok: :pok:  >:D

I think in the UK they're delivered by Royal Mail  ::)

seriously, no idea why, it's bound to be a server mail configuration issue, but I haven't the foggiest idea where to start looking to fix it.

Can you no longer have links in your signatures?

EDIT: OK - got there with a combination of BB code and html :)
Title: Re: not getting email notifications of pm's
Post by: Nikos on March 31, 2011, 09:00:18 PM
Dave I believe you can use standard html links, i.e.
Code: [Select]
<a href="http://...">your text here</a> IIRC at least one other guy had that problem and they solved it this way...
Title: Re: not getting email notifications of pm's

Yeah just sussed it thank Nikos - looks like the [url] bbcode tag is blacklisted according to the message you get.
