Even though, when I post a message, I choose the “Email Notification: emails sent to you whenever someone replies. Only registered users are eligible.” check box, for the past few days, I never get any. When I log on, I either have to go to a forum and scroll down to see if a thread I last posted to has be posted to since, or, I have to go to Search and search for my name.  
Does anybody have any ideas what’s wrong and how this can be fixed? Thanks.
