Oh the e-mail notification of PMs is working, maybe not for you but it is working. Not a day goes by that I don't get SEVERAL e-mails from folks thinking they are replying to PMs when in fact they are replying to the e-mail notice. I have to delete several of them every day. I used to notify folks when they messed up like that but I really don't have the time to waste on it so I just delete them these days.
I'm aware of no problems with the servers lately so I'd have to assume at least that it's a problem between you and your ISP. I've had no problems and no one has reported any to me.
I think (HOPE) that we'll soon get the call tags to ship the new servers. This has really turned into a circus. The guy who was the saleman Matt worked with to set up the package deal has been fired and getting them to honor the price and terms we got has really been a headache. I think that if we don't get the call tags next week I'm just gonna pay the shipping myself and get them on the way as this has dragged out too long already. They were supposed to give us free shipping of the servers to them as part of the package deal Matt made with that salesman. We're waiting to see if they will honor that agreement. Hopefully Matt will find out today.
