  • GUys, alert is not working for me since a month..
    Sunday, June 10, 2007 12:24 AM
  • Guys i have a solution or an alternative for this...

    Go to the link of My threads at the top, here you will find the list of the threads you are registered for alerts....

    There the top most thread is the one which has been the latest updated thread....
    Now the trick is the Icon at the left of the thread....
    Its colorful if it has been updated after your last visit, and its black if you had already visited the updated thread...

    So you dont need to visit every thread to check if there is an update, just check the color of the threads.. if there is a new post after your last visit, it will become colorful, so have fun and do the smart work...

    Raghuram, was alerts working earlier for you ? if not then all the mails might be going to the spam folder. Cause by default the mails go to the spam folder. I have marked it as safe, and now i am getting them Smile I thik you should add Windows Live Alerts from Microsoft Forums (forumsup@microsoft.com) in your safe list Smile

    Since you are not gettign themails in the JUNK(SPAM/BULK) folder, you cannot directly mark the sender as safe. I think there might be some subscription Sad try unsibscribing from a thread, and again subscribe to it. To see a list of all the subscribed threads Click HERE.

    Adding the email address in your contact list  will automatically add it into the save list Smile.
