Tom, I think this is a gmail policy issue. They recently started requiring SPF or DKIM for mail sent to their customers, and it looks to me as though Kumar reads via gmail. I will send you a longer explanation by ordinary email.

Tom, I checked my Gmail account and have not received an email for your PM. I also did not receive an email for your post here. I am auto-subscribed to this thread as confirmed from my Subscriptions list.Originally Posted by Tom Westbrook
EDIT: Since yesterday, I have not received any notification emails for any of the sub-forums to which I am subscribed.
bkreid, thank you for offering a possible explanation. I usually read my emails on Thunderbird on my PC, and occasionally on the Gmail site, when I am away from my PC. I haven't changed any settings either on Thunderbird or Gmail, and have been sending and receiving emails without any problem. FYI, I continue to receive notifications about new messages from Photrio without a problem.
Gmail says: "To improve email delivery, we recommend that you always set up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for your domains. Make sure you're meeting the minimum authentication requirements described on this page. Messages that aren't authenticated with these methods might be marked as spam or rejected with a 5.7. 26 error."
There are no messages from LFPF in my SPAM folder. If a message was rejected, Tom may have received a notification.

I am not a large-format photographer (I sold my Speed Graphic 20 years ago and now use Leica digital cameras) but I am a mail and server software person. I have sent Tom some instructions for what to do, though he might well know more about it than I do. The issue is not how you read your email, but how gmail accepts delivery of mail addressed to you. Google's new policy is to reject inbound mail whose sender does not comply with their rules.

Thank you, Brian. Perhaps other users who have Gmail accounts can post here with their experience over the last two days?

Here is the log entry for a recent attempt by the forum software to send you email. I removed your email address because I wasn't sure whether it was private.

Actually, as I think about it, I can adjust things to meet Google's stated SPF requirements without involving Tom, who is traveling. But it's way way past my bedtime and I know better than to attempt strange software adjustments late at night. I'll see to it in the morning (San Diego time).

I have created the SPF record that Google claims will make them happy and convince them to start accepting inbound email again. I don't know exactly how to test it, but perhaps someone (such as Kumar) who was being affected by this could try again.
Thank you, Brian. I believe the problem has been resolved.
I received an email notifying me of your post here, as well as two emails notifying me of posts in subforums to which I am subscribed.
Kumar
