    ...just wondering, as it's been a couple of days since I've received any. (Settings in User CP have been checked)

    Hi Dr M

    I dont have notifications enabled so could not tell, but I guess you have checked your spam box and whitelisted majorgeeks.com? (just checking)

    Best is to ping Jim and ask him.

    Thanks, David.

    Nope - none trapped by my spam filters... this has only been happening recently.

    Hi Don

    Just another thought, if using the likes of Gmail, Hotmail or another HTTP service, I just wonder if they are filtering out emails, my guess is they are not or may not on every server around the world, but worth changing your account email to a pop3 one unless it is already.

    Hi guys i have had the same problem and tried everything from malware to restore without success then i logged into me ISP website and opened the e-mail client there and all my mails were there but in the spam folder so some thing has changed at MGs to make them think it's spam because it just went like that two days a go.

    Hi Bill

    It could just be flood control, if ISPs see large amounts of emails coming off one server then they could start blocking them, we have this issue with anything from Hotmail at times that comes through the Gov network I use in work, countless times they have been told its not all spam.

    Don, dont know if you have pinged Jim, but I will now and direct him to this thread.
