Default Newsgroup Notification

Thanks for your reply. I'm posting to this newsgroup and clicking the box
that says "Notify me of replies" . I did not get notified about your reply.
It may be a problem with our email not letting it get through to me
(detecting it as spam). We're looking into that.

If you actually post a newsgroup message (i.e., directly to a news
server via a newsreader, telnet, etc), there is no "reply" function -
that's not the way newsgroups work.

If instead you're posting via a web portal, it's up to that portal to
keep track of replies. Are you always using the same portal? If so, are
you always logged in under the same account (so it knows where to send
the notification)?

And (just curious) did you get notified of this reply?

post. Any idea why?
