--- Quote from: ""Scarlett Chiclet"" ---Ok, Sendmail issue should be resolved now. More good news. The cause of the problem was that the forum was sending out over 2k notifications a day. That's a whole lot of people pming and watching topics! They've raised our quota, which should hold things for awhile but we may well need to outsource sendmail at some time in the not too distant future. So please keep an ear to the ground for a reliable, free or very inexpensive provider. When I say reliable, I mean technically stable, of course. More importantly, trustworthy with what may be sensitive information.

Thanks, ya'll, for all of your help and support!

I don't think any of us had a clue that there were so many notifications.  If if comes down to having to pare the number, I'd say the PM notifications are far more important to me than the topic notifications.  Perhaps there might also be the option of setting a limit on topic notifications per person, e.g. 5 in effect at a time or something like that, if that helps at all...

Ursus:
Forum order on the Index page bears no relation to posting history (i.e., most recently active on top).  Minor point, but thought you might like to know... 8-)

Froderik:
Yes, I've noticed this too..
Also, visited posts aren't always showing as having been visited.

And we're getting spam like this:
