I recently changed my email address, and updated my profile accordingly. Now I am not getting notifications on replies to the topics I am watching. I can see that people have posted in them, but there are no responses coming to me. I even went to my profile and double checked my new email address, and it is spelled correctly. Help! :scratch:

Have you checked your e-mail at your old e-mail address to see if the notifications are still being sent there? Maybe there's a bug in the forums that prevents notifications from being sent to the new address when your e-mail address has been changed on your profile. Or maybe should check to see if you're still watching those threads.

There are some bugs in the site software, one of which is that if a post is deleted it tends to lose all the watches for that thread. So you have to re Watch it again.

The problem appears to have stopped. Thanks for the replies!
