I am subscribed to a number of threads (400?) but it seems I do not get any emails (Instant email notification) telling me I got new posts waiting. The latest is this one: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=140483

Could you check out whether something is wrong with the server or whether it's broken (I mean the feature)? And does this happen to you (I cannot follow threads without this feature -crucial to me). Thanks.

Same here. I haven't received any e-mails for the last couple of days. I was just searching the forums to see if anyone had posted anything about this.

A little off topic, but related...hope no one minds. :rolleyes:

Does anyone know if there is a limit to the amount of subscriptions one can have?
