A Note on Notifications

If you have your account set to notify you via email of replies to your posts, private messages, etc., the notification email is not meant to be replied to. That's why it says, "Please do not reply to this message." You need to contact the person whom the notification is about on the forum or by private message, aka "conversation." Replies to notification emails go to my inbox, and most likely not what you intended.
 
Carl, Carl, Carl,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, he was the culprit which put words to unspoken thoughts. I'm smart enough to know that challenging a web page owner is like bringing a knife to a gun fight. I have no idea what Carl was thinking,,,,,,,,,,,, he wasn't. :rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
The occurrence of folks hitting reply to message notification emails is on the rise. These emails are notifications of posts and messages. Responding to them DOES NOT send an email to the author of the post or message. Your responses go to my inbox! I will no longer steer your response to the intended target or contact you regarding your error. From this point forward I'm deleting these when they hit my inbox. I'm working 14+ hour days and simply do not have the time to clean up other's mistakes. The notifications clearly state "Please do not reply to this message." Yet here I am!
 
Noted--as it was last spring. Still hoping you get Huntindave McCann in the loop--and make his emails to these bozos public!

My guess would be most of these are SPAM message auto-replies and/or new users. And may I congratulate you for keeping the Spam we users see to a very bare minimum. Can't say that about most forums that I still participate on, especially those that have move to FB. Fair warning--when the AI chatbot comes on every day to summarize our discussions, I'm out! :)
