Automatic forwarding of PM's to registered email addresses

Submitted by William Smith on April 3, 2012 - 2:32pm

There is an option on each members profile page which allows the member to receive a notice to their  outside emails when they get a PM.  I've had this option checked for months, but have never gotten a notification of PM's pending on site.  I've made sure my email is correct, and don't know why it doesn't work for me.  Is anyone else having trouble with this handy function, or am I not understanding how it is intended to work?  Thanks

For those not working, go into your account, select the 'edit' tab and then under 'Private Messages' down the bottom make sure that 'Every time I receive a message' is selected.

Thanks admin

The choice "Every time I receive a message" does not appear in my account under edit.  All's I see is

I've clicked on the Private messages link to see if this shows other options, but in just displays/hides the one choice above.

I also do not receive notification via email of new PMs (although at one time I did), nor is there an option to select "Every time I receive a message".  All I get is the checkbox for receiving notifications, and it has always been checked.  My screen looks exactly like the image that Will posted.

Just checked my settings. Email is good, box to receive emails is checked. Not receiving notification either.

Try now. I found another permission setting that may help.

If still no joy please let me know what Browser you are using just incase its something stupid like that.

I'm using Firefox. I get the on screen notification, just no email. Thanks

So in each members account info page, under the edit tab, there are some new choices which may fix this issue.  Thanks admin!
