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).

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?

I changed my account email address to gmail, still no email for PM. I don't think google worry too much about vwwatercooled :)
