E-Mail alerts going astray.....

A couple of days ago I posted a question in this forum, since then I

have been inundated with e-mail alerts all destined for other

members. This morning there are another 13 all on a variety of

subjects posted recently. I have alerted bboard@photo.net of the

problem but as yet it has not been resolved.

While I am here can I ask another complete novice question please. On

my G-Claron lens the F stops are divided, some by one mark, others by

two. Are these marks a known division of the F stop?

Regards,

Bryan

Bryan, your message to bboard@photo.net wouldn't have gone anywhere. That is the address FROM which we send alerts, and it receives all the bounces for invalid addresses -- which means thousands of messages per day, since we send many thousands of alerts and about 20% of the addresses are bad.

Not surprisingly, no human is reading that mailbox on a regular basis. If you have a problem, please report it to feedback@photo.net. webmaster@photo.net works too.

(Bryan forwarded me the alerts he had been receiving.)

Bryan, these alerts are not intended for other users; from the headers it is fairly clear they are intended for you. You seem to have signed up for so-called "instant" alerts of every posting in the LF forum, and this is what you have been receiving. Do you remember doing that, or is it a bug that you have been put on the alert list?
