  • Start date
In summary, the PF website experienced an issue with their mail server, causing a delay in sending out newsletters and thread notifications for the past two weeks. This issue was resolved and all emails were released this morning, resulting in a flood of emails being sent out. It was also discovered that registration confirmation emails were not being sent during this time, so those who registered within the past couple of weeks are advised to check for their confirmation email now. The PF team apologizes for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Alot of you may have noticed you haven't received any newsletters or thread notifications from PF in the past two weeks. Apparently our mail server was hung up and kept all the emails in queue without releasing them. This morning we fixed the problem and it released all the emails. So we apologize if you received a flood of emails from PF this morning. :smile:

Update: Also apparently this means registration confirmation emails were not being sent out. So for those of you who registered within the past couple weeks and haven't gotten your confirmation email, please check now.
