Danielx64 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Only recent, I'm not receiving any emails when a reply is being made to a topic. Does anyone know what may be the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atcapistrano Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 by any chance, do you use old windows live mail client (which was retired by Microsoft on june 2016) ? if so, use windows 10 built-in mail app that can handle emails from Hotmail, live.com, outlook.com, yahoo mail, and gmail or alternatively, use Mozilla thunderbird client.

Danielx64 Posted July 21, 2016 Author Share Posted July 21, 2016 Nope, I use gmail for my emails. I'm getting emails from other places on the internet so it just this forum that I am having issues with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveLegg Developer Posted July 21, 2016 Developer Share Posted July 21, 2016 Yesterday we suffered a DDoS attack in the early hours, which as a side effect triggered a massive flood of emails (~200,000) to be sent to me to let me know about it! Unfortunately, this overloaded the quota we have for our outgoing email service for the day. It should have reset by now, and if it hasn't yet, it will do shortly, and then emails will begin to flow as normal again. +John. 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long story short, infinite loop oops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
