BEWARE! With ISP's providing better spam protection on your personal computers it may be required to create an email filter on your computer with these forum addresses (noreply@proboards.com) and (noreply@prbrds.com) so your Internet Service Provider (ISP) doesn't tag the reply emails as spam. It would also be recommended that you add both of these email "From" addresses to your "Address Book and/or Contact List".
What happens is this forum sends out the reply email and your ISP will block it, "As Spam". You may not get any messages about the email from this forum being blocked and in most cases you won't get any email about any messages being blocked. Email addresses that have a filter created with them will not get blocked and the filter allows them to go through even though your ISP marks them as spam. Cox, Comcast and various other ISP's tag a lot of emails especially forum emails as spam and this forum is hosted by an entity that has it's post reply emails tagged even though the emails are not spam and contain no harmful viruses or Trojans. This kind of spam blocking will become even greater over the next several years and I like not getting all the ads and B.S. in my inbox but myself and millions of others don't get a lot of forum and web site reply emails because of this spam blocking. I created a filter on my computer that allows the two "From" email addresses to get through and the reply emails go fast into my inbox now.
If you use an email address like gmail, live.com, mail.com or any other email host the reply emails from this forum most likely will be blocked because of their advanced Trojan protection but the emails won't get forwarded to the inbox your ISP provides for you on your computer. In Gmail cases you will get a "Delivery Status" message telling you the message could not be forwarded to your personal ISP if you have forwarding turned on and the email will be deleted with only the "Delivery Status" message appearing. If you are not getting the reply emails from this forum in your hosted email inbox then your hosted email account is blocking them also and you will have to go through the setting to allow the emails from noreply@proboards.com to be allowed. MSN's Outlook will move them into the junk file until you put the email "From" address on the provided safe list and add the address as a contact. I don't know about Yahoo or others yet but I do have several accounts that foward email and "No Spam" and no reply emails either.
