Email notification of PMs has stopped

Hi Jeff

I've definitely still got it ticked in my options, but I'm not receiving these emails any more. They're pretty essential to my method of operating the Prediction League, so could you have a look at this.

Last one was received on the afternoon of 10th April.

It looks like no mail has been sent from the server since then.

I'm going to reboot it to see if that sorts it out. The site will be down for 1-2 minutes...

Nope - not yet anyways.

I don't know what's causing it but all outbound messages on the server are marked as "frozen". Over 2,000 of them are in the queue. I'll update you when I have any news.

It's working! It's spat out three in the past ten minutes.

It started working when I turned the server's firewall off, I still need to find out why the firewall s blocking emails so I can turn it on again.

And there's a queue of over 3,000 old emails still to be sent. Telling the mail thing to resend them all isn't working, I have to do each one individually, which could take some time!
