Yes Calvin. All my junk/spam goes to a folder and stays there until I ditch it. Last week, I did receive a couple of email notifications about a day after they were posted to my thread, but then they stopped coming.

There can be two reasons you're not receiving the emails: You didn't check the "Check here if you would like copies of follow-ups to your message emailed to you." box when you created/started the post You don't have the email option turned on in your profile. To turn the email option on: Go to "Your Profile" (see top of page, above GardenWeb banner) You will have to log in again Check to be sure the email address entered is the correct one Scroll down to bottom to shaded area. Check the box that says... Allow other users to send you email via forms at our site. Click the "Save Your Member Profile" button You're done! I don't know if it's retroactive for current posts, but all future posts should have replies emailed to you....assuming you checked the "Check here if you would like copies of follow-ups to your message emailed to you." box when you create a new post. Note that this only applies to posts/threads that you start. There is no way at this time (that I know of) to keep track of someone else's threads other than to bookmark them as Loves2Cook4Six mentions.

Yes, go up to Your Houzz in the top right corner, then hit Edit Profile (near top right), then at the left go to Advanced Settings. You can control your notifications from there.

Hi Gary, I just heard from one of our engineers. We've got some changes happening with our emails this week that may be affecting notifications this way, but it should be corrected by the end of the week. Can you let me know if this is still happening to you next week?
