In the German subforum there is a discussion whether the mail notification for new posts in subscribed topics / forums may be broken:
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=22462
Apparently some users receive mail notifications. Others don’t receive these mails, even if it had worked until a few weeks ago (about middle of July). According to their own statements they haven’t changed anything in their settings, and a local spam filter can be excluded.
Also, some subscribed topics / forums don’t show up in the subscription list in the user control panel. Deleting a subscription and newly subscribing don’t change this.
Any ideas what might be causing this?
