    Default No email notifications coming in for PM

    I've got the settings checked to allow instant email notifications when a PM is received in my inbox but it isn't showing up in my Hotmail account and isn't in junk mail folder. Am I missing something obvious?

    It seems like there are a few people not getting them, despite the settings being fine. Do you all use hotmail?

    I'm trying adding "@ozgolf.net" to safe senders list to see if that will allow it to bypass hotmail's filters.

    I'm trying to think if there is something that I can do at my end if it is common for Microsoft email accounts.

    Do you guys at least have the forum notifications turned on, so you get a popup when you visit?

    Default No email notifications coming in for PM

    I've started testing after creating a hotmail account.
    I was able to receive an email from my own OZgolf email account. An email sent from the OZgolf admin account went to the junk mail account, but still got through.

    The next test is to see if a PM notification gets through.

    I have confirmed that forum generated emails are being blocked by Microsoft operated email accounts. Something may have triggered it to go on a blacklist, so I am opening a ticket with my server host for more information.

    Is there anyone who has a Microsoft email address that does receive notifications?

    Hotmail / Outlook has to be the biggest POS webmail going. So concerned about safety that it's become unusable for its users.

    Andy, I use hotmail & also not receiving notifications..

    Seems to have only been a recentish thing though.... I thought it might have been related to when I became a Mod & that maybe a setting had changed but, this appears not to be the case.

    Sorry that I didn't reply to your PM. I was hoping you'd see this.

    The server hosts are investigating and have contacted Microsoft.
