is there and email server configured?

when i subscribe to a thread i don't get an email.

i have checked in my junk box

Calum

No, I don't have an SMTP server setup.

I probably ought to sort it out.

But the machine the forum runs on is considered expendable. So I don't know whether it's worth the effort.

The forum notifies you of updates. I usually leave this tab open on my phone or computer so I always see updates.

Would be handy for password resets mind you

gareth_iowc

This would work - https://www.smtp2go.com

We use this for temporary projects Etc at work. You get a 1000 free emails a month should do ok

Calum

@gareth_iowc If there is a genuine requirement from this, I can create my own.

Is this a genuine requirement?

Anyone else need it?

Would be handy especially with password resets?

Might also encourage older members to come back or new members to revisit if they see an email once in a while of a "popular topics this month" kind of thing.

How often have you forgot your password to the site?

Calum

@Mightyman Interesting, but not necessarily trivial to implement natively.

But this is the feedback section, so happy to do it if you guys want it.

I also need to get some forum stickers made up!

NINJA

@Calum OOOHHHHHH - Forum stickers for our bikes???

Calum

@CYBER-NINJA Yeah nothing fancy, just our logo and the web address. I want them made as transfers which means creating Scalar Vector Graphics, SVG, so that they can be laser cut.

I will make them available to people who want them once I have got some.

I will post more about this in a separate thread.

@Calum me personally just once, but if every one of the users have had the same issue than surely that counts.
