Title: Where Are My Messages?
Post by: Scunner on September 10, 2012, 20:25:22 PM
Just to be sure that everyone knows.

Private Messages (PMs) sent to you from other CBF members don't arrive as an email in your mail inbox anymore - you check your menu bar when logged in - If there is a number next to your "My Messages", you have mail...

...just click on "My Messages" to read them and reply etc.

Please also note - when you get a message, you will get an email from CBF to say so. Please DO NOT reply to the email, it is just to tell you to check your message box on the forum - and if you want to reply, you should reply from the forum once you have read it  :)

Please can members try to grasp this little fact...

Do not reply to private message emails - your reply will NOT get to the person you are replying to. Reply via your messages section ON THE FORUM. Cheers!

Are you sure about this ?

Post by: Scunner on September 30, 2012, 22:21:08 PM
I have fairly strong suspicions...

And again - please can members try to understand that private message emails from CBF are just to let you know there is a message in you CBF box ABOVE. If you reply to the email it will not go to the member intended.

REPLY TO PRIVATE MESSAGES ON THE FORUM, NOT BY REPLYING TO THE NOTIFICATION EMAIL IN YOUR INBOX

Got it thanks - it says all this in the email you receive from CBF to tell you you have a message in your inbox   ;)

I did reply (in my CBF messages) to Mercury by mistake though when I thought I was replying to Highlander the other day. Clearly I haven't sussed everything out yet!  ;D

Members are still replying to email notifications that you have a message.

Please note the above. If you reply to a CBF message notification, it WILL NOT ever be seen by the person you are replying to.

COME TO THE FORUM AND REPLY!!!

AAAAAAAAAAGH

Members are still replying to emails from CBF - these are just notifications that you have a message waiting in your message box on the forum.

If you reply to a CBF message notification, it WILL NOT ever be seen by the person you are replying to.

COME TO THE FORUM AND REPLY IN MY MESSAGES ABOVE!!!


That feels better

What was the middle thing?    ;)

Post by: Scunner on April 04, 2013, 18:18:38 PM
And again

Please can members read this topic and understand that they MUST answer private messages at the forum - the email you receive is a NOTIFICATION of a new message

IF YOU REPLY TO IT, IT COMES TO ME (ADMIN) AND NOT THE PERSON YOU ARE REPLYING TO. AND THEY ARE GENERALLY VERY BORING.

And two more since I posted the message above. There are a lot of people wondering why they never got a reply.

Post by: nichola on April 04, 2013, 18:35:13 PM
Was I one of them? Is that the same for email messages as well as Personal Messages - which I did know?????
Title: Re: Where Are My Messages?
Post by: Scunner on April 04, 2013, 18:38:44 PM
Not you no  :)

If you click on reply in a CBF PM notification email you will see who it is going to - Admin@CBF

Other emails are not the same as this. Just CBF private message NOTIFICATION emails
