If You Need to Reset Your Password
Next to the login box is a 'lost password' link. The emails, unfortunately, end up in your spam email (at least on gmail, they do)

RE: If You Need to Reset Your Password
I'm working on getting them to not be marked as spam. Not sure how successful I'll be though...

RE: If You Need to Reset Your Password
Can somebody who uses the Reset Password please confirm whether or not the emails are still being sent to Spam or not? I think I fixed it.

RE: If You Need to Reset Your Password
I was getting automatic notifications of updates to every thread I posted in yesterday and the emails were going to spam, but I turned the autosubscriptions/notifications off... want someone to turn them on again to see where the emails go?

RE: If You Need to Reset Your Password
Yes please. I have a subscription and they aren't going to spam anymore - but I just want to make sure.

My spam box is filled with new post notifications. The last one from 10:18 pm (ET) yesterday.

RE: If You Need to Reset Your Password
The theory is that since the IP address of this server is new, emails are automatically sent to spam. I changed the IP address, and I just tested it - in Gmail it went to my Inbox, in Ymail it when to spam.

Please confirm this.

PS: Please delete the accounts 'DELETE' and 'DELETE TOO'

RE: If You Need to Reset Your Password
The emails have been reaching me in gmail since I manually went into my spam folder and clicked "this is not spam."
