I got a few Private Messages recently but never received an email while I *DID* have set my profile in order to receive it when getting a new Private Message. Could you check your error log and if there is something wrong with your sendMail function?
Thanks in advance and best regards.

P.s. I will also enable notifications for this topic just to check if email work at *all*.

♦ Ninja ZX-10RR ♦,

  The site is set to use PHP notifications and should be working. I only have it set to send me notifications from one specific board which appears to be working for me at the moment.  I will investigate this further & thank you for the report.

Regards.

Thank you Chen Zhen, I can confirm it's not working on this topic (email notification for your reply did not arrive) nor for PMs. My email provider is Yahoo (you can very much likely see it though), but like I said I have no issues with any other site, I am currently receiving emails from many smf forums except for this one.

Best regards :)

P.s.: Changed the topic title to reflect the updated issue.

♦ Ninja ZX-10RR ♦,

  It appears to be working correctly for me whereas I can not duplicate your issue. After setting notifications for this topic I received an email with your last reply. My user settings are the same as yours for receiving notifications.

  I do not use yahoo for email, are you absolutely sure you checked all incoming email messages (ie. spam, junk, etc.)? Is it possible that you somehow flagged SP's emails as spam in the past where it is ignoring any newer ones from it?

Regards.

Well he seems to now be unable to reactivate his account.
He does not get the emails, so he's in effect, locked out of here.

Could you please activate his account for him, Chen?

  Account has been activated after the email change. Imo try something other than yahoo such as gmail to see if that works.

Perhaps the information in the link provided below is relevant?

https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN7253.html?impressions=true

I added the email alias of noreply@simpleportal.net  and configured the forum to now use it for sending emails.
The noreply@domain alias may work where yahoo detects the noreply text. I may have to set it to not accept incoming emails (bounce) for it to work properly.. not sure yet.

I understand your concerns but believe me with all the experience I have acquired as regards SMF I did all possible checks before posting...
So, to clarify...
-SP emails are not marked as spam, and they had never been as far as I can remember
-Any other SMF forum emails work, including mine, italiansmf, sm.org and others
-I got nothing in my inbox nor in my spam folder, I actually check it daily to see if I am on someone's mailing list that I didn't subscribe for

In order to understand where the issue can be I'll temporarily switch over to my business e-mail address and check if they arrive there.

-Many thanks to BurkeKnight for the help and Chen Zhen for reactivating my account. I've now proved myself that I am not receiving anything on Yahoo nor on my own personal domain. When I switched it it was on virtualinteractivege.com, but not working there either, so I just switched it back. Thing is that if I switch again and can't get the email I am locked out again :(

Probably useless information but emails arrive fine for me using gmail and I'm definitely on the same or lower permissions than you. If it is a problem with sp, though I'm sure there's an alternative reason, it must hate your email.

Thanks a lot for your information, even if they didn't arrive on my own email with my domain... And I never had a single issue with that. I could have blamed yahoo indeed but since they don't arrive on my custom email as well I have no idea... :(
I'm just disappointed because I can't use them :(

Hi guys, just a quick one.

Are the activation emails working here?  Just I have one of our team at http://coppermine-gallery.net/ who says he was a member here some time ago, but can't sign into his account.  When he tries to sign in with that account it tells him the account hasn't been activated. He can't get hold of the activation email.

Username gmc  I'll PM the email address if you need it.

If anyone could help with this it would be appreciated.
