Email Notifications Failing (mostly Telstra)

Hello everyone. Seems there is an issue with Telstra (possible others) blocking email from our server. If you are trying to sign up I would suggest a different email if possible. If you're trying to reset your password and it fails please use the Contact Us page:

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • PM email notification is not exactly working right

    I can't remember since when, I only got about 10% of PM email notification, roughly 1 out of 10 PM I have one email notification, I'm still addicted to vwwatercooled, check at least 20 times a day , so it may not be a big issue for me.
    Can site admin check if that is not working properly ?

    I've looked into this just now, I got an email notification and a popup through tapatalk so it all looks like it's working.

    You can check your email address and if the settings are turned on to send emails (although I'd guess they are if you are getting some).


    If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.

      I haven't changed the setting for years, always has "Receive Email Notification of new Private Messages" set as ON.
      Problem is I only occasionally get email notification for PMs.

        Seriously though, try disabling it, saving. The turning it back on and see if that helps kick it into life. I've got a few upgrades to do behind the scenes which might also help.

            It's not your email provider catching things as SPAM?

              It's not that old .com.au v .org thing from a few years back?
