when you made a post you could tick a box to get an email notifying you if anyone responded replied to your post. if someone sends me a message, i will recieve an email to let me know.

There are two ways to ask for notifications of a thread, whether it's a thread that you didn't start or to which you did not reply.

See the attached screen shots.

Yep, all boxes checked, but sometimes a bit intermittent. Probably just a glitch like there was before?

Did you check your spam?

Quoteim not going mad at all, but in the post your mp3 section for microbr, there is no additional options like in this part of the forum. going to go back and see if the notify box is there.

Hey, you're right! All of the child boards of "Boss BR Digital Recorders > Post your MP3", "Boss BR Digital Recorders > Post Your MP3 - Collaborations only", and "Other recorders > Post your work" lack the Additional Options section. I hope Pedro will be able to fix this soon.

I removed additional options on purpose because I thought it wouldn't be needed. Are you in search for the Notify me of replies function? Because, like Ted wrote, you can click Notify on the end of topic, next to Reply, to achieve the same effect.

In relation to the intermittent notify mails, I don't know what the problem could be. It is probably related to the server being busy at times.

That's fine, thanks. It's not a problem, just means I shouldn't be so lazy, and check things more often :D
Really only asked this to see if it was general, or just me having the odd glitch ( well, the PC anyway, I have glitches all the time).
