pm email msg

[Zerandise]

I have gotten 5 PM emails notices since 3ish this morning yet no pm's? are they hold back from pm's I had gotten before? sort of odd as I thought i got a butt load of pm's and had none.

thanks :)

That happens to me too. I get messages that there is a PM, but when I check there are none. :confused:

[muck]

Ive had that once or twice as well. I just assumed it was someone who sent me a message but then changed their mind and decided to delete the message from their outbox before I picked it up. :confused:

[Delphinus]

Could they be old notifications? I noticed I had a few emails from the board yesterday come well after the moment.

If someone sends a PM, then removes it while still in their outbox, you get the notice but no message.

[Bob I]

As a matter of interest. I can look at my inbox, and see there is a message. I then read the message, and much later I receive notification that I have a new PM. Just now I received a PM. I will let you know when the email notification arrives. :biggrin:

[Delphinus]

Yeah, that's what I meant. Today the email notification has been pretty much instantaneous for me. But yesterday, not so. Who knows what's going on with them internet routers. Maybe the electrons were on a coffee break. Darn unionized electrons!

Bob/Tony, you guys using Shaw email? That will do it. I always get email notifiactions right on time with my email.

[Bob I]

Yes I use Shaw, and BTW it is now an hour after I read the last PM, and no notification yet. :eek:

[Aquattro]

yup, likely a shaw thing

I get a response right away probally only a min or 2 but i use msn and am on telus.

If I can get my other emails instantaneously, why would it be a Shaw thing? :confused:

It's so bad today, it's been hours since I read the messages and the notifications are just coming in. And it's so hard not to take the time to go look...just in case !

[Aquattro]

Deb, Shaw has always had delays in their mail. I can mail myself from my Islandreef server and it can take hours to show up to my shaw account.
PM notifications to my own server come in right away.

[EmilyB]

Yah, I understand that Brad, but I'm emailing back and forth with a client today and all the emails arrive immediately, yet not the canreef ones ?

Hmm... maybe it's got something to do then with the time of day the pm messages were sent to me.

Bah, I suppose I should be working anyway... :rolleyes:

[Aquattro]

I guess it could be the route it takes from Canreef servers to your Calgary mail server, whereas your client might have a different path.
