I don't get automatic emails

Since we switched to this new forum, I no longer get an automatic email when these are any new posts to this site.
I can't find any changable settings to make this happen.
Anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks. :shock:

You only get automatic e-mails to responses in topics that you post in or start (and sometimes this doesn't even work). You will not get an e-mail everytime someone posts a new topic or replies in a topic that you are not participating in. Unfortunately, the software is not designed to notify everyone about every single post.

I am a member of a couple of forums that use this software. It is good and basically spam proof and hacker free, but the e-mail notification system doesn't always function correctly.

Thanks for the reply. I now understand. I guess I am used to our old Yahoo forum where I always got a notifiction.
Does it seem that there is not as much activity since we moved?
Thanks again, Rich :)

Although we had some pretty dry spells on Yahoo, it does seem to be slower on the new forum.
