Is it me, the new website, something else?
Anyone else getting their journal entries?

I'm getting mine fine... didja check your Spam folder? :unsure:

You prob did but I just wanted to mention it anyway cuz my yahoo acct is very over-agressive with marking good messages as spam, and even when I tell it it's not, it'll do it again the next day, and the next... :whip:

apolonia - February 18, 2008 02:16 PM (GMT)
I checked the spam folder and didn't see anything there. I didn't get any of the notifications from the books journaled last night. :shrug:

I got cheri's and Chambejd's JE entry last night just fine. That's strange that you aren't getting them.

I've had a few end up in my spam folder recently for some reason.

I get journal notifications sporadically. It seems like if there are a *lot* of journal entries made on my books that they don't arrive via e-mail. The one-sy/two-sy ones show up just fine.

PepperVL - February 18, 2008 02:50 PM (GMT)
I too get them sporadically. :shrug:

wss4 - February 18, 2008 03:07 PM (GMT)
Yep, some are, some aren't.

I was peeking at books the other day and say quite a few that had been journaled that I had not gotten, especially ones that were being releasesd.

I received two last night, but I know I do not get all of them.

Lemonitsa - February 18, 2008 07:39 PM (GMT)
I know that at least 3 have arrived in my mailbox. :(

Same here. I had so much spam that I checked it all. As it was deleting I noticed something from bookcrossing. Damn don't know who it was from :(
Next time I got to be more careful.

I think I get them sporadically. Yeah...and some end up in spam...not sure why versus others not.

Sunlightbub - February 19, 2008 09:17 PM (GMT)
You don't want to know what I have in my spam :blush:

Oh, and several from someone trying to sell me watches :giggle:

candieb - February 19, 2008 11:31 PM (GMT)
I just checked... I've gotten on about half.

Sigh.

This might sound dumb, but how do you check? DO you just look through your books or is there a secret way I don't know about?

candieb - February 20, 2008 03:11 AM (GMT)
I sorted by recently journaled and then checked my gmail account :)

Hmm recently journaled is this a new thing or one of those things that have been around forever and I was totally dumb and overlooked it? :shrug:

It's a wings-only sort option that has been around as long as I can remember...

apolonia - February 20, 2008 03:29 AM (GMT)
I just got the wings to check it out, so where is it? I'm looking but I don't see anything yet?

apolonia - February 20, 2008 03:32 AM (GMT)
Ah I figured it out!

It should be in the sorting options... in the drop down box where you choose, Title A-Z, Author A-Z, etc.... I think it is the last one. Try refreshing the page or logging out and then back in if you still don't see it. I know sometimes the wings sorting options stay after you lose your wings if you don't log out. Maybe the non-wings options stay until you re-log in??

ETA: glad you found it!

My journal entry notifications have been pretty spotty lately too. Some I get, some I don't. :shrug:

appaloosatb - February 21, 2008 03:35 AM (GMT)
I think I only get about half, maybe less. I wonder if this is happening to newbies too - it could easily cause someone new to the site to quit. :unsure:
