I had a similar problem, the email was in my junk folder!

My phone (Note II) and my mac didn't show up the email using the standard email app. Logged onto outlook and checked there... low and behold.

Could be but as no one was interested in taking over the running of the site when Steve offered it's only to be expected. :sad1:

Any update on this?

I notice that this forum is and old version. V2 is out now, I'm sure the upgrade would fix to repeated problems we all experience.

Not always easy to upgrade if you have plugins and stuff from older versions in there... plus there's no reason a new version would solve the time outs we experience (they might though as I know absolutely nothing about SM forum software :jumpmove: ), but it's more than likely down to hardware resources, or lack thereof... which could be a combo of a bad script or just simply traffic... which is why I'd close the entire forum to guests with immediate effect to rule this out (you could still alow bots to crawl and add to serp) :happy2:
