    We had a problem this morning with a spammer using our forum software to send a large amount of spam email. I've disabled the email system, which means that PM notification email, thread updates, and all the other stuff you normally see in your inbox will be missing while the problem is located and fixed.

    Some of the security updates may involve installing updated versions of the forum software, which may change the current layout, features, and design of the forum. It's also possible that the site will be inaccessible for a few hours. Any changes that occur are temporary, it will be returned to normal service.

    I apologize for the inconvenience, we'll get this sorted out as quickly as possible.

    I believe we've located and fixed the problem, but I'll continue monitoring the situation. No downtime was required.

    Just want to confirm Blind Driver's issue. I'm also not receiving email notifications for subscribed threads in past 2 days.
    It may not be the site's fault, but just a backlog/delay in routing thru the NSA... :biggrin_2559:
     
    Admin Thanks this.
