No email notification - squeaky-wheel notice!

Justin,

Sorry for the redundant squeaky-wheel thread, but I can't seem to get further responses from anyone on staff. I haven't received any email notifications for 28 days. Is anything being done by BoM's developers to fix this bug? Any information or updates you have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Comp

Exactly as I detailed in the sister-thread. Nothing has worked.

I was under the impression this problem was already reported. From my previous thread - October 6th:

Are there any new developements?

Justin,

Thanks for the update. Since Comcast is one of the largest ISP's in the US, it would seem to make sense that if they were blocking emails from Tom's, there would be many more Forum Members coming forth with complaints about email notifications.

Coincidentally enough, however, I just received email notifications for 4 threads! I'll let you know how the trend progresses, or if there are any intermittent disruptions, just as others have mentioned.

Thanks, Justin.

Emails from Tom's have been rolling in very consistently, and match 1 for 1 against checking "See my threads". I'm not much surprised that when I spoke to Comcast, they were clueless. I'm sure your team knew "who" to speak to at Comcast, which is proof once again that in many instances, it's about "who you know"!

Regardless, thanks again for your help,

Comp

^WHAA???? Lol, switch to Gmail

As for disk clean up, I hope you don't mean the Window's built in one...I'm assuming you are talking about CCleaner? And no defragging??

Sorry for hijacking the thread

I like windows cleanup, it gets rid of several gigabytes of temporary files.

Ahh... makes sense. Which SSD would this be? X25-M,Vertex,etc?

As for Windows Clean up, it's slow (takes like 5-6minutes to get rid of junk lol) and leaves stuff behind (mainly some CAD program temp files) in my case, hence why I run CCleaner, which gets rid of that CAD temp files AND it's takes only like 2 minutes. (Btw, I'm assuming you are talking about the built in Disk Clean Up util built in to Windows). At any rate, I run CCleaner every week or after a long session on CAD/CFD (SolidWorks,Inventor,Thermal Desktop,etc).

Me too, since I typically keep my software squeaky clean.

I have had it delete over 3GB before and it still only takes a few seconds. The real slowdown was in XP (and maybe Vista?) when it used to scan for old files to compress before it showed up the dialog with the space that could be freed. Windows 7 doesn't have that, so it's quite fast.
