Since upgrading to 9.0 (I held out as long as I could because 8.0 is so much better, but they basically forced me finally) I no longer get notifications of replys to threads here. I know it is probably something really stupid, but I have checked all my 'Option' settings here and they are right/the same as always. I have gone through my AOL 'Preferences/settings' area and nothing jumps out at me. 9.0 has all kinds of 'wonderful' new spam filters and layers of 'protection' to keep the real world away from us. I can't help but think it is some of this filtering that is keeping notification out. I have set my 'security' level very low and even manually set classiczcars.com as a 'trusted' source. Can anyone clue me in? It's not the end of the world if I can't get it back, but it's kinda cool.

Steve,

Are you talking about the email notifications that are sent to you when someone replies to a message thread in our forum?

If so, it might not be a 'browser' problem but more of an email spam filter problem. I don't know anything about AOL, but, I do know that a lot of companies are trying to filter abusive email messages.

Check your spam filter settings and/or check your 'spam inbox' to see if our messages are in there. You might need to add 240z.org as well as classicZcars.com to your email security settings (ie: allow all messages).

OK, I think I may have found the problem. Yes, there is a folder for automatically deleted spam (never knew it was there!). I is FULL of messages from webmaster@classiczcars. I also found a list of 'troublesome' sources in my spam preferences folder and classiczcars.com made the list! Let's see if this works...

Yup, that fixed it. thanks

In your Spam folder you will find a button "This is not Spam". Hit that on addresses you want to get mail from. It will take a while for the computer to learn what you want, and what you don't. But, it is worth it. I have had AOL 9 for, well since it came out. I like it much better than 8, but that is personal preference.

Ahhhh...I see. All kinds of stuff in there I wanted to read. Seems it has been culling out quite a few--but not all--of the 240z and Z-Home list messages too. Thanks.

I have 9.0 for quite awhile now and always got replys. Recently though I noticed they stopped. Aol must have done a update that changed that. I am glad you mentioned it. I will check the spam folder which I have never looked at before.

Ditto. Checked it out, that was my problem also!

I'm having the same problems..........I noticed 2 days ago AOL is putting all email notifications in my spam folder.

I ran AOL 7 for the longest time until they came out with AOL 9 with searchable E-mail. I save all my letters. so much easier to recall a saved e-mail now.
