Anyone else notice that e-mail notifications of new posts in subscribed threads has become quite delayed. I just now received notification of a new post in a thread that I had already read before we went out to dinner, a couple of hours ago.
This is the firs day that I've noticed this.
block it in your user cp :)
I don't want to block it, I want it to arrive on a more timely basis. Maybe it's my mail server holding things up....
There seems to be a delay of about two hours between the time something is posted and the time I receive the e-mail notification.
Then look at the email headers to find out the time for each part in the delivery chain.
Interesting, it's now back to almost instant. The headers showed no more than a few seconds delay between your post and my receipt of the e-mail notification.
Nope..never noticed that...:oQuote:

The post in question is time stamped:
Yesterday, 04:40 PM
The e-mail notification to me is time stamped:
Date: April 8, 2006 7:59:51 PM GMT+07:00
Which is when it showed up in my inbox.
And, here is the raw source of the message:

nobody@server159.serverscenter.com is obviously the original sender ( a mail bot ) and is responsible for the delay..
The others in the chain has passed it on immediately.
So, do I understand correctly that nobody@server159.serverscenter.com is the mail bot which distributes e-mail notifications for Teak Door?Quote:

You're probably the only one who uses the notification thingy, and yes, it is/was the TD server causing the delays.
Don't know..
But a guess is that not so many members are using e-mail notifications for new posts in thread.
So, what do the rest of you do, just sit around and click the "New Posts" button all day?
You got it!Quote:
