Still not receiving email notifications
Apr 10 2008, 6:57 PM EDT
I have four wikis on Wetpaint and am not getting my "Watched Page" notifications even when I make changes on my most recent one. I have tried changing my email, checked my Watch settings and checked my spam folder.

Are notifications down today, or is there a way to see if they are being sent on your end and not received on mine? I've tried with two different providers in case one of them had blocked Wetpaint, but surely Yahoo! should allow emails.

Please let me know; I am reluctant to invite all of our members in if notifications don't work properly on Wetpaint, and after much searching of other notification threads on this wiki, I am worried that is the case. Thank you.

I think it only notifies you if someone other than you modifies the page in question. Do you find this valuable?

That's correct. Our system assumes that if you're the one making the edit that you're aware of it ;-) Do you find this valuable?

You are right. AOL places wetpaint in the Spam folder, I am afraid, Yahoo, Gmail and the like will do the same. My members with these addresses have never received my messages
Very discouraging to say the least.
