Cox, Comcast, and maybe some smaller web sites have been blocking emails from the site recently.

If you have stopped getting alerts or other emails from the site over the past week or so, please complain to Cox/Comcast/etc and ask them to remove my site from their blocked list.

I believe they are using a service called "Cloudfront" that mistakenly has me on their list as a spammer.
I have asked Cloudfront to remove me from their listing several times but they said the requests need to come from their customers (Cox/Comcast/etc).

Thank you.

That's funny in a way, I was just coming here to post and ask why I wasn't getting PM notification Emails for the last month(ish), since I have a pop up blocker I don't always spot the little red notice, or the momentary banner in the address bar.

I'll try and contact my provider, not looking forward to that since their customer service is "second to none" Confused

Thank you for contacting them if possible.

I could not have responded to you via email since I'm being blocked but obviously posting here would work. Smile

I believe this is fixed now - I got in contact with a different person at Cloudfront who cleared the block.
