Overnight I've received four notifications of new posts made in the 'Simpson Millar LLP Holiday Claims Team' thread in the Holiday Complaints forum.
Posts were apparently made at 21:19hrs, 21:20hrs, 22:03hrs and 22:27 yet, on logging into the thread, the last post made seems to be at 20:47pm.
Whilst it's possible that four new posts were made and the poster/posters changed their minds and deleted their posts, this seems rather unlikely and leaves me wondering what's going on - is this a glitch connected with the implementation of the new software or have four posts been removed without explanation?
I read them last night Geoff .. didnt seem anything untoward , query re their email address .
Hope your both well.
I've checked that forum and there were 4 posts last night but not at those times, and also there were none deleted that I can see in the admin control panel.
My thoughts would be that Gmail is currently sending out the emails was on a go slow causing this delay. But I could be wrong.
Once we have swapped the code over tonight I will update the email settings so that emails are sending via our server rather than Gmail which should speed up that process.
Let me know if this happens again
Hi Lyn,
Sorry, was there something wrong with the email address it was sent from? I might have read this wrong.. its too early
Cheers guys,
Phil
Oh right .. Sorry just checked the topic and those that I saw are on there. I was up quite late mooching around here and think I would of seen if there were any others
I thought there was a query with the email of where the notification emails had come from. Lol Understand what you're talking about now
Yeah I think your right it's pretty unlikely that they would have been deleted. Ill change the email and let you guys know once this has been done so we can monitor going forward
Cheers, Phil
I use Gmail and I am also subscribed to the Complaints forum. As far as I recall, I received notifications of those new posts at the correct times last night. But Gmail has been doing a lot of strange things lately !
I'll change emails from gmail to our own server shortly. I've checked ACP I'm pretty sure none were deleted. Maybe you could have a quick look for me please, just to clarify that we aren't deleting users posts.
Cheers, Phil
No, all the posts are still there Phil, nothing has been deleted. All that changed was that I edited the first post in the thread to remove all the rogue text and characters which had appeared, but that should have no bearing on the emails.
Yeah I think its more a glitch in the gmail server perhaps. But just wanted to clarify the post deletion.
Cheers mate,
Phil
Gmail Notifier gives a pop up and audible alert to any incoming mail, usually within a couple of minutes of it hitting the Inbox. I have just had a pop up and audible alert, but no new emails were displayed in my Inbox. It was a further 8 minutes after the pop up before the email actually arrived.

thanks David. So its not just me then. I have been getting new message alerts but no messages at all, till hours later
