    Unless I have missed it, I see no settings that setup so a member can get an email if they have an alert or PM. Is this something the admins of this forum can change? I know most people don't like email notifications, in fact, I am not a big fan of them. Still, having this option would sure be nice!

    Messages email notification is in your settings in the top black bar next to your avatar, and you can also select on each thread to get email notifications. There is no email notification for alerts. That would flood our email service and bog the server down.

    Now, if you have opted out of emails from TR, you will not get any emails, including the password reset email.

    If this is the case, you will need to contact me to have it removed from the opt out list. Once it is removed, you will again receive emails from TR.

    So somewhat along these lines, it appears I have messed something up and can not figure out what it is for the life of me.

    A few days I stopped getting all emails from the site, both in reference to replies to threads I am participating in and about new threads posted to forums I have on my watch list. Near as I can tell all my setting for getting emails are correct but I'm figuring I must be blind or stupid, maybe a combination of both.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?

    It's possible you've inadvertently unsubscribed to site emails. I'll see if BHW can check into it and get you going again.
