Lin Evans Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 When I post a response to another's post, I get two identical posts and must delete one. When I get email notification that there is a response to a thread I'm following, I get two identical emails.... HmmmmLin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Yachtsman1 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 This was a problem some time ago, I reported it & it eventually went away.Yachtsman1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fh1805 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 I switched off e-mail notification many months ago to cut down on the amount of e-mail I was getting. I have never experienced double posting. I have used Firefox for over two years now, first on Vista and latterly on Windows 7.Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lin Evans Posted October 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Hi Igor,I'm using Google Chrome with Windows XP. Perhaps the two issues are not related, or could be due to something odd in my system, but I doubt that email and the browser are related issues. I'm still getting two email notifications for each post. Oddly, I did not get double emails for Peter's latest post, but did for all the others - see below:I get the double mail whether using Microsoft Outlook or Thunderbird, and only from the PTE forum.Best regards,Lin Lin,Regrettably I don't see this problem on my PCs with Google Chrome + Windows 7.Please let me know what web browser you use?

fh1805 Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 Lin,I think the problem lies outside your machine and probably outside the Forum servers, too. I have had a sprinkling of double e-mails for the past few weeks. I cannot accurately point to a particular change or a date on which they first happened. I suspect that, somewhere out in the e-cloud, all is not quite right and our e-mails are occasionally solicited twice from the same place even though the first one came through OK.The double posts are another matter. You're not wearing new glasses, are you? No recent blows to the head? Too many Buds or Bourbons? regards,Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lin Evans Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 LOL - no glasses, possible recent blows to the head (can't remember) and definitely too many margaritas last weekend!Best regards,LinLin,I think the problem lies outside your machine and probably outside the Forum servers, too.

Lin Evans Posted October 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2012 This morning, the double emails stopped - everything is back to normal there. The jury is still out on the double posts. We'll see what happens over the next day or so..LinWhen I post a response to another's post, I get two identical posts and must delete one.
