Testing email notifications for Followers

Hello dear readers. I have been told by a long-term blog follower who has signed up to receive emails that he has not been receiving them of late. There are over 700 of you signed up and I would be grateful if upon receiving this “post” you could email me at tsawford[at]btinternet.com to say that you have received it or add a comment to this post (click Leave a reply top left of post as shown in this picture) .

This is just a test to see if the function is working correctly. If I get a few replies I will ask for a halt to stop my inbox being swamped! If I have none, then I know to contact WordPress to see what can be done.

If you appear to be having intermittent problems ie you receive some but upon visiting the site it appears that others might not have got through, it is worth checking your spam box and also to mark the notification email address as “not spam” and add to your safe senders list.

Thank you in anticipation for your help.

Tom

    I follow the blog on WordPress and not email. It’s my preference and seems a much better system.

    Email received. Thanks for the work you put into this site – like other posters I look forward to your emails, as I never know where I’m going to end up in looking at references, following links…a bit like reading Paddy’s books.

      Yes, it is a bit like that isn’t it Steve? Following numerous gingerbread trails through the forest. Some dead-ends. Some little goldmines!

    Dear Tom I’ve been receiving (I think) all your posts by email regularly, and a great source of enjoyment they are to me – often the most eagerly awaited and read of my day.

    I know, I know, I should get a life, but thank you so much for keeping this up.All the best.

    I’ve been receiving all the notifications via email for your site but this problem seems to be a WP gremlin. I’m currently chasing up several blogs with WP because emails have not been coming through.
