UPDATE - this is happening again (25 March 2011)

===============================================================

I used to get a mail icon at the top right of the page (next to UserID | Help | Logout) to indicate that I had new unread mail.  This doesn't appear anymore.

Is this affecting everyone?  I can't see any setting that switches this on or off.  Or am I just going mad?

Any ideas folks?

since the email format changed about 8 weeks ago , i no longer get any new email notifications either, the place on my homepage that used to say 5 new emails etc always says -0. Dont know why?

Same here.  No notifications unless the email originates from a chess.com address.

Working on it now... thanks!

My notifications stopped about 6 weeks ago.

This should be fixed now - more upgrade problems.

If this is not fixed, please respond here or send me a direct message.

Thanks! 

Hi,

   Still does not work for me, no icon and it always says "0 new" on my home page.

I sent a single test email from an external email account - The email did arrive I just got no notification.

Thanks,

still say 0-new here too

For me it doesn't even say "0 new" (& I've sent myself a mail from my gmail account)

Firefox ver 3.6.10

The email notifications do not work - not just for me but for others who have different email providers. I have checked my spam/junk mail and made there are no emails in there.

Still says "0 new" even though I had 26 messages at one point.

Even though I have only been a member for a very short time, I got the odd email when it was my move, which is very useful otherwise I have to repeatedly check the site to see if my opponent has moved. Now I get no notifications at all which is disappointing.

still no new email notification here

Still not working for me (I just checked & I have 5 unread emails but nothing showing here)

It works!

I also have many missed emails when it is my turn, I just keep checking back to see when it's my turn.

As a sidenote, the same thing happens with missed notifications in the droid app but I have posted that in the mobile thread.

Again the notification on the web page (the envelope icon) has stopped working.  Just checked & I have 4 unread email messages.

Im also not getting notfications via email when its my turn to move :(

I'm not getting any notifications through email or droid app. Very convenient to be notified of a move.

Ditto on the lack of notifications.
