Emails not arriving

It was pointed out to me this morning, that automated emails from the site are not arriving for some members. These include Private Message notifications, and emails for topics you are following. These emails were arriving fine for me, which is why it wasn't noticed sooner.

The problem started with the site migration a few weeks back. The short version - the new server has a new IP address, and the hosting provider needs to make a change to get things going again for everyone.

Again - this is not a problem for everyone, emails are being sent just fine from the C-Brats server. However, not all email providers are accepting them - AOL and Comcast being two that I'm aware of, although there are likley more.

As soon as our hosting provider makes the changes I submitted to them a few minutes ago, the automated emails should be flowing for everyone again.

I just got an email from an old high school girlfriend! Whatever you did, Bill, it was good.

Too little, too late, and too old!

Better just twitter with your twitterer, instead!

Joe. :lol:

I am wondering if the cron job that sends out email notifications to people who are following specific threads might not be completing every time? For example, today I received one notification (about one thread) but when I went to check on the threads there were a dozen or so that I was following that I did not get notified about. This is an ongoing problem, so probably not related to the recent hardware change. I did check my span files and filters, and they are not there.
