Forge emails have stopped coming

Geraint · Post by **Geraint** » Wed Mar 22, 2006 11:58 am

This morning I stopped getting any forge emails.

1. My ISP marks spam but doesn't filter
2. Messages sent manually to the same email address are getting through
3. The same messages on the project are getting to other recipients

Anyone else having difficulties?

Could the problem be caused by my email address which is of the form

[email protected]

I did an experiment and I suspect there may be a problem with email form.

I created 2 new accounts

1. [email protected]

2. [email protected]

The second worked fine but I didn't get the second.

Is there some overzealous domain name testing going on?

I don't know what happened, but something is indeed not going the way it is supposed to be. I am not receiving certain e-mails myself.

I need to contact the administrator or forge.joomla.org but cannot find any "contact us" or "support" options on the site. Is there a way of doing this?

If the administrators are reading this post then my problem is quite simple - I am not getting any email from the forge. They just stopped coming yesterday morning (I have no spam filters, the email address receives other mail fine and have checked with my ISP).

thanks

Geraint

Sorry, I should have replied in the other thread. I will merge them later. I am also not receiving any emails, and have already opened a ticket on the 22th. I will check the ticket every day, and let you know where there is more information available.

They are working on it, but it isn't working for me yet. Hopefully it will be up soon again

Any news on this, tonie? I've been missing some notifications in the last week.

Thanks,
Brent

Not yet, last communication status is from last friday.

Messages have started to reappear

Yes, I also have e-mail from Forge for the first time in a week.

Oh no!! Mine appear to have stopped again

I noticed as well, and have already updated the call yesterday, and today again. Hopefully, a proper solution can be found.

If its not "security sensitive" - do you know what the nature of the problem is?

Just curious why it should be selective in its impact.

I don't know server structure, I only maintain Forge from the Joomla! point of view. Anything I would say here is pure speculation, but it seems that the mail queues get overloaded and lots of messages get bounced.
