Stopped getting subscription emails - Page 3

My emails (to an earthlink address I have used for 15 years) were not bouncing or ending up in Spam. I have spam protection on earthlink's side turned off, as a matter of fact. They were forwarding to my main address and everything worked perfectly until a week or two ago.

 

Switching to a gmail address fixed the problem, for now, but I am reasonably sure it's not a 'spam' problem unless my provider just blocked you out altogether.  They still allow lots of regular porn/nigerian/pharmacy spam through! :) :)

So the first time this happend, I changed my e-mail address in the BYC system to an alias on hotmail and got my e-mails for a few weeks.  When they stopped coming I changed to my other e-mail my phone company offers me with my internet service and that lasted about a month.  Now it has stopped, so I just now changed it to the other e-mail that my husband uses with our phone company and the e-mails are coming through again.

 

This cannot be an issue with my service providers as when I change the address in the BYC system they come through.  If my service provider were blocking BYC e-mails, none of them would come through, this has to be an issue with the BYC system.

 

I imagine this will work for about a month and then I guess I will be SOL.

I've seen other people complaining about this too, but they just say they've given up. I pointed them over here, but not much in the way of responses.  It's not a huge deal, but just a heads up that there's something odd going on. Not sure on what end but certainly more than one email provider is having problems. 

 

Just out of curiousity, I will switch back to my old email address and see what happens. :)

I tried that too and I did not get the confirmation e-mail that BYC sends when you change e-mail addresses.  In other words it didn't work when I switched back to one of the addresses the BYC system stopped sending my updates to.

Yep, same here. I just changed back and no confirmation email. ALL of my other email is sent to that address without problem and I have virus blocking turned off, so it's odd.

Thanks for the great feedback and patience.  I've escalated this to our engineers to continue to dig into it and determine why some of you are having email problems.

Anybody else stopped getting email subscriptions?

 

I am not getting any notices too. I found this thread while looking for what the issue might be. I was afraid it was something I did. How can I get them to start? I am on AOL & they are not in spam

I haven't gotten any subscription notices since BYC changed either. I gave up!

Mine stopped again last night.  I have no more e-mail addresses to add; I've gone through four now.  So I guess I am just SOL.
