longshot Posted March 3, 2007 Report Posted March 3, 2007 Is it just me or are we all experienciing this................ No forum generated emails viz: Notice of posts on 'watched' topics Notice of new PMs Archived PMs not arriving ? me too, since yesterday afternoon?
fotoman Posted March 3, 2007 Report Posted March 3, 2007 me too, since yesterday afternoon? i haven't gotten pm notices and archived emails in days i thought my spam server was getting picky
Admin Posted March 3, 2007 Report Posted March 3, 2007 Not just you, Reg. All members, including me, are experiencing this. The reason for this are the DNS changes to the server. There is a thing called rDNS (reverse DNS) that identifies this server to other servers (as in your mail servers) When the rDNS is not set up correct, the receiving e-mail server will reject the e-mail because it has no way of recognising the sending server. This is caused by a faulty setup at the datacentre where our server is hosted, and they have been notified about this several days ago (when you sent me your PM), so it should have been taken care of then. According to them, it has been set up, but it takes some time for this to resolved on all DNS servers.
Watchmeister Posted March 3, 2007 Report Posted March 3, 2007 So our server has to spread the news to others.
Pugwash Posted March 3, 2007 Report Posted March 3, 2007 According to them, it has been set up, but it takes some time for this to resolved on all DNS servers. Right, so once the propagation is resolved, we'll get a shitstorm of mail?
KB Posted March 3, 2007 Report Posted March 3, 2007 Right, so once the propagation is resolved, we'll get a shitstorm of mail? Unless of course you are like me and don't subscribe to anything Ken
Admin Posted March 3, 2007 Report Posted March 3, 2007 Right, so once the propagation is resolved, we'll get a shitstorm of mail? Hope so
sashwatch Posted March 5, 2007 Report Posted March 5, 2007 has the problem been fixed? not getting any notification since last week... cheers
Admin Posted March 5, 2007 Report Posted March 5, 2007 No, unfortunately not. Just sent another e-mail to the datacenter to get them to fix this asap.
narikaa Posted March 9, 2007 Author Report Posted March 9, 2007 Still no maelstrom.....errr mail storm! nuthin .
vmena Posted March 9, 2007 Report Posted March 9, 2007 I've never received mails from the forum notifying anything...
Admin Posted March 11, 2007 Report Posted March 11, 2007 I'm very sorry guys, but it seems to be dragging out. The ISP is having a problem registering the new ip-adresses the server has been registered at RIPE and until this is done, things can't be fixed. The ISP has sent everything that needs to be sent a long time ago, and they are dialy sending follow-ups, but it doesn't seemt o help. These things are usually fixed in 2-3 days, so this is highly unusual.
rolli Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 i'm also getting mails now !!!!! thanks rolli
narikaa Posted March 13, 2007 Author Report Posted March 13, 2007 Same Here but not all the PM archives I sent prior to this problem
Admin Posted March 13, 2007 Report Posted March 13, 2007 Yeah. The notification problems are gone, but it seems all prior e-mails have been lost in cyberspace
deltatahoe Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 Yeah. The notification problems are gone, but it seems all prior e-mails have been lost in cyberspace not sure if anyone else is having these problems, but my notification emails have stopped again in the last couple days (they were working for a while though )....
deltatahoe Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 just got a slew of emails from RWG!!! i suspect it's working again...
eunomians Posted April 1, 2007 Report Posted April 1, 2007 I have not ever gotten any PM notification with this board software. And yes, I have 'PM notification' enabled. I figured it was just a bug, but I admit it bugs me since I have to log in here to see if there are any PM's.
