Folks,

Can anyone tell me how to enable email alerts whenever someone posts a reply for a post i have submitted OR for a specific post/forum/topic i want to watch?

I have to annoyingly keep refreshing to check whether i got a response or not.

Thanks in advance.

I think this will do it.
User Control Panel-->Board preferences-->Edit posting defaults-->Notify me upon replies by default-->"Yes"-->Submit

Never mind it was a setting error due to spam issues I was having in 2010.

Board wide e-mail is now fixed.

The "Subscribe topic" button should now be available to all members on the top left side of each topic.

Thanks Moto! I think your later reply is what might do the trick. Coz i did enable notification under Board preferences and i wasnt getting any alerts.
I have subscribed to topics i want to watch so lets hope this does it.

I also got a private message from another forum member but never an email despite having the option checked/enabled under board preferences.

Would it be asking too much if you can check that bit too and if broken?

Thanks much in advance!
