Has anbody ever been sent a mail on SH and it has opened itself? I have rec'd a new mail and when I logged on to check it,it had already been read?
im really worried someone has access to my account
Change your password if you are worried
Yup on many occasion, and pm's disappearing. (I've changed my password a few times :shock: )
I know of others with the same problem
Me too, was wondering why it was happening. Think its just the gremlins messing about lol
same here only the once,could it be admin etc, they can access your account, to remove things, just an idea ... lol

Admin, Mods or Ops dont have access to anyone's PM's, the only person who can access them is the person who has the account.
BUT, yes I also had one opened yesterday which I hadnt read.
Yes Ive had same prob, thought it was me going senile!
we too have on rare occassions, when looking at our mailbox noticed theres been a mail there that neither of us as read but its been opened.
Hmmm interesting. Would that explain perhaps why sometimes when I've sent out replies to mails to which I'd normally expect another response, I never get one? Are they being intercepted somehow, or just never reaching the intended recipient?
Private messages are exactly that, we don't intercept/delete/read anyones, unless requested too by the user if there is a case of abuse.
You are indeed most likly experiencing technical issues, which the new mailbox and further tweeking of the setup will resolve.
However its worth knowing that if you do send a mail, it will get to the user, sometimes because the database servers take a few minutes to sync. In the same situtation, you may get a notification of a mail sent before it appears in your inbox while the servers take the time to sync the data.
For instance:
Person sends PM via Database Server 1.
Email notifcation gets sent.
Recipient logs in and checks their mailbox on Server 2.
Mail does not exist on Server 2 because its still syncing over from Server 1.
And thats basicaly it smile
Also, forgot to mention, the email server has a small backlog at the moment, so the Pm notification mails may be slightly delayed getting to you.

Could the different servers and the above explain why I get notification of emails from some members quickly and not recieving notifictions that I have recieved pms from others? confused

Edited to say: would that include *watched topic* notifications as well?

Partly, it hasn't been as reliable as we would like and some server config changes have been made over the last few days to make it better.
There's also an issue with the likes of / /aol putting mails from this site into trash folders being worked on.

i was chatting to another member and said i had just sent them a pm and they never got it

this, and non notification, and getting a notification when there is no mail happens to me all the time dunno
just learned to live with it
I had one yesterday that unread itself.
I am sure I read it and this morning, there it was as bold as brass.
Spooky. I suppose on the basis of the advice above I should on no account change my password should I? wink
