There is an option on each members profile page which allows the member to receive a notice to their outside emails when they get a PM. I've had this option checked for months, but have never gotten a notification of PM's pending on site. I've made sure my email is correct, and don't know why it doesn't work for me. Is anyone else having trouble with this handy function, or am I not understanding how it is intended to work? Thanks
It used to work.
Used to work for me too.... no longer.
Not working :(
Still works for me. Just got notifacation of one from Jerin tonight.
works for me too.
Thanks
So it works for
Bob Bruno, Bourg01,
NOT working for
Will Smith, Fifth, Gerard, Timerestoration,
For those not working, go into your account, select the 'edit' tab and then under 'Private Messages' down the bottom make sure that 'Every time I receive a message' is selected.
Thanks admin
The choice "Every time I receive a message" does not appear in my account under edit. All's I see is

I've clicked on the Private messages link to see if this shows other options, but in just displays/hides the one choice above.
I also do not receive notification via email of new PMs (although at one time I did), nor is there an option to select "Every time I receive a message". All I get is the checkbox for receiving notifications, and it has always been checked. My screen looks exactly like the image that Will posted.
My screen is the same as well.
Just checked my settings. Email is good, box to receive emails is checked. Not receiving notification either.
Hmm, need to investigate further.
Any progress Stephen?
Try now. I found another permission setting that may help.
If still no joy please let me know what Browser you are using just incase its something stupid like that.
In reply to Try now. I found another by mybulova_admin
I'm using Firefox. I get the on screen notification, just no email. Thanks
So in each members account info page, under the edit tab, there are some new choices which may fix this issue. Thanks admin!

Getting email notifications now. Thanks Stephen.
Mine works fine and I get the notifications every time.

Glad it's working.
