Email notifications of new posts - bit erratic ?

Is this just me, or is anyone else finding the email notification of new posts a bit hit and miss ?

I seem to get a few, but on numerous occasions I haven't received any emails about some threads I'm actively posting in :confused:

I've checked my spam folder in Gmail but it's not getting trapped in there...

I reckon it's just you. ;)

Seriously though, I've not had any real problems with them aside from them being a tad slow on the odd occasion, but I don't know whether that's down to SCN or me as I host my own mail server. :shrug:

it can only be put down to your ISP if it's irratic in delivery. the server will pump them out in batches of 10 or so anyway - so it's virtually instant.

I've had this for months now - Although i get *SOME* emails of replies, I don't get them all. So i regularly log on and check my userCP for any replies that way.

I'm with hotmail, and it does it on most vbulletin forums, so not SCN specific.
