A lot of you sign up for email notifications when receiving a PM, or subscribing to a thread here.
These are auto sent generic emails sent from our site.
Several ISP's, including Comcast.net and Charter.net among others have been black listing our site, causing your notifications to bounce.
Some of these ISP's use a company called csi.cloudmark.com to filter out generically sent emails. They mark them as spam, and they bounce back to us.
Once we get too many bounced emails, the ISP blocks our site, causing everyone's generic email notifications to bounce.
We're doing everything we can on our end to correct the situation. We've added an "unsubscribe" link to each email. We've stopped sending out the happy birthday email to cut down on people possibly marking it as spam.
I've just contacted Comcast (who uses Cloudmark) and asked them for the 2nd time in 4 months to unblock our site. Cloudmark is erroneously marking our generic emails as spam.
The members of this forum can help too...
Those of you that subscribe to threads need to use the unsubscribe link at the bottom to stop the emails instead of just marking it as spam. Too many of you are just throwing them in the spam folder.
You can also help by unsubscribing from old threads that you no longer want to follow. Go to your userCP and clean house please.
Same thing with PM email notifications. Use the unsubscribe link please if you don't want the emails anymore. Or change your preferences in your userCP.
Those of you that still want these email notifications sent to you, but are bouncing, will need to contact your individual ISP and request our site be taken off their BL. Give them our IP: 199.193.245.85
Ask them if they are using csi.cloudmark.com. These are the assholes that are putting us on the BL.
Here is a partial list of folks on here who's emails have been bouncing since Feb 2nd. AFAICT, all of you are being blocked by Cloudmark.:
Josh Jones
Tom Slick
SlowRT360
Chris Hitchens
Dwight (bwdakrt)
LemonGlowR/T
MurdaJ
99yellar/t
cwelborn
Jim Havens (turboed r/t)
Dick Stoots (dstoots)

G-man
Steve '02CC
Chris Oshenic ( krs1r/t)
Mike Setterlund (mikset)
There may be others as well.
If your ISP is Comcast, you shouldn't have to do anything. I've already contacted them on your behalf. You should have email notifications restored in 24 hrs.
If you use another ISP, you'll have to contact them yourself to stop the bouncing.
Those of you that are marking these emails as spam are making a bad situation worse. If it continues, It'll lead to many more ISP's blocking our site.
And eventually we'll be BL'd everywhere and NO ONE will get email notifications.
