I'm not recieving any email notifications, although I am subscribed to the Email updates list, and have been for some time. I think I got a notification several months back, but nothing since.

is there a problem?

Have you checked "Preferences" in your profile?
Then make sure there is a tick in the box to send notification to reply's.

Also, at the bottom of each post you reply too, at the bottom there is also the option to "Notify me when a reply is posted"

Failing that, make sure your Anti-virus and Firewall settings are not blocking you out.

I don't think the original poster was talking about being notified of replies to postings in the forum. He was talking about not getting email notification of updates to the speed camera database. Someone else has posted about the same problem over the weekend, and I'm having the same problem myself. I've never had an email notification of an update to the camera database, or any other email from PGPSW. I've just tried signing up to newsletter alerts again but it tells me I'm already signed up.

Mmm,
I think I had the same problem when I first registered, so I downloaded the RSS Feeder (Link available on the camera update page)
then for no apparent reason I got notification of camera updates from both the RSS and e-mails.

we haven't actually published a newsletter for some time now. We've all been so rushed that its one of those things that has been overlooked in the mad rush. However we will be releasing one very soon.

But do you send out email notifications of speed camera updates? Because I've never seen one of those.

E-mails are sent with regards to update notification of cameras, if you have subscribed.
Or at least mine are received OK.

Again, try the RSS download link.

No we don't. We publish the announcement on our front page and updates are generally posted at the end of each month although we have published twice in Aug and hope to repeat that from now on.

There are plenty of reasons why a visit to us at least twice a month would be useful to you ;)

Sorry my mistake.

Yes, sorry that is an option for users but we don't send out a specific email to users as we have to be careful to avoid falling foul of ISP's anti-spam measures.
