Today I posted a question on Kudoz.
I got the notification of the question, but I didn't get the first translation suggestion, even though I am using a different email address.
This leads me to conclude that it has nothing to do with my server, but with Proz itself.
I understand your frustration, but that conclusion doesn't necessarily follow.
For the last couple of years I've had problems with gmail blocking some of the mails I send. This relates to both business correspondence and mails to friends I've been corresponding with for years, in some cases decades. It's specifically a problem with gmail, not hotmail, yahoo, or the other big providers.
In some cases my mails were sent to spam; in others I got a message that my mail had been blocked for vague reasons; in others they just disappeared into a black hole. I found out how to whitelist mail senders on gmail, so I could inform my clients/friends when necessary.
But it wasn't all my messages, just some of them.
So there is no consistency in this. It seems to be random whether a mail service blocks an incoming mail or not. Whitelisting usually solves the problem, but not always.
By the way, I have my own web server, which includes a mail server, with its own IP address. So there is no reason why my mails should be blocked unless it's part of a wider and too-inclusive form of screening.

The site unfortunately wants traffic, nothing else. Quality doesn't count much here. My hopes were higher too,

More than 3 months after reporting a similar issue, I yesterday finally received an apologetic reply from the site suggesting I "verify my registered accounts". I verified both. No change. Replies still do not reach me.
They always seem to assume the weakness is at our end, while they are "pushing for a new level in quality of service". Pretty much gone to the dogz.
Maybe Henry's just not interested any longer. Understandable, I suppose.

That is very strange. There was actually a period not too long ago during which several members were complaining, including me. However, a few days later, things got back to normal.
I also thought for a moment that Proz didn't care with losing members, but I guess that was never the case. I believe, there is no interest in getting members to quit the site.
After all, paying members or not, if it weren't us, language professionals, this place wouldn't exist, right?
I am sure the staff will do something for you.

Thanks for your reply. The staff have been in touch. My email address (@gmx.de) seems to have been the problem. I've changed it.
Would you mind replying to this post so I can see if I receive notification of your posting. When you have a moment. Thank you.

I had to check manually to see if you had replied - no notification received. I've informed site staff.

Thanks for the last two replies - I got notifications of both.
Apparently my forum tracking notifications were turned off, however that happened.
Now it just remains to be seen if I also get notifications of comments on my contributions in Kudoz.
Ciao for now,
