andlid Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 I'm trying to get a notification when ANY new threads are posted and the info in the mail thats sent to my mail address. Is there anyway to do that? Pain to have to go into each and every forum and click subcribe and don't seem to be able to find if you even can change the notification type mail... its to stop me missing something crucial (for me that is) since I'm a periodic user of the forum...

Chesterfield Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 There is no easy way of subscribing to every section at once. Though I would not reccommend it even if you could. Between May and June, we averaged almost 600 posts per day. It has got busier since then too. Without checking the stats more thoroughly, I cant be certain on the number of new topics per day, but the search of active topics in the last 1 day brings up over 130 matches. In short, you will get a LOT of email. Erring on the side of caution I can't see this being less than 5000 emails per week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andlid Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 hmmmm what about just receiving mails on new topics posted ? That would mean a tiny 20 mails per day. And if you decide to post in them well... then you subscribe anyway. fyi, dont think I'd crash the mail server... (google)... maybe where the site is hosted would be seen as a spammer... and crash itself... it would be good for the forum if you could do the following: get mails on ANY new topics/thread started (not responses to the threads), this in turn would get more members active if they see something they've got some 'cool' input too.

I don't come in here every day really, just in periods of time. (lately is one of those periods I think) Anyway I wouldnt need to wading through more then 20 new topic emails per day... pretty please mods ?
