Email notifications - Now working

Hi,
I modified the forum a little bit, now instead of having the email notifications telling you that there is a new message - you also get the content of that message.
Additionally - The messages will not stop after 1 notification, but rather continue forever.

Please note that notifications are NOT sent to users that are currently logged in, if you are online - you are online and can check it yourself, the idea is that once you are away - you can still receive information about what's going on.

Please note that I am still trying to figure out if there is a limit to the length of the posts emailed, so I need feedback from you guys.

Enjoy.

Gil: Very nice work. We have now, for all practical purposes, returned to all of the features of the original forum and more.

I take it this is activated by subscribing to a forum or topic?

I'm subscribed to most of the Forums ("C" Series, Basses, Guitars, etc...). I'm also subscribed to a few threads within those forums. Does email notification work for both forums and threads, or just one and not the other?

It works for both.
Alas - if you are subscribed to a specific forum - there is no point in subscribing to a thread within it.

Curmudge: I see that you subscribe to notification. You must be feeling more a home. It is hard to believe for me that it has only been a week since we moved to the new format.

Please also note that there has been a third theme added which some will recognise as an older version of this software. It is, at least to my eyes, somewhat easier to read than the newer colour scheme.
