Someone sent me a personal message on July 5. I was just notified today July 20th.
A little late.

I have made a change.

Lets see if you are notified of the PM I just sent.

Thank you for fixing my problem.

I believe I have my notifications set to 'on' for private messages, but I never get notified that something has been sent to me. Is there some other setting I need to change??

Dave,

Your notification settings are correct, they should be coming to you @ d.nichols@earthlink.net, if not check your security settings. Sometimes stuff from our servers is blocked as spam.

I know the system is working correctly, I just received a notification of your post in my AOL email.

At the bottom of your Notification page the Suspend Subscriptions box was checked.

I have unchecked that box.

Let's see if it works now.

Thanks Dirk, I missed that check mark.

Thanks guys. I guess I didn't realize that private messages got caught in the same net as forum messages when I suspended notifications. I took this as a good opportunity to clean up that whole notification area.

I didn't either at first, but noticed that PM's were listed as Subscriptions.

We all learned something here.

Old dogs and new tricks comes to mind for some reason.....
