I have things set up to get forum postings by email, and that mostly works fine. However I have recently been receiving multiple email copies of Martin's postings. This morning I received eleven emails with Martin's posting number 473. timed in here at 21:02. The emails were timed between 00:39 and 08:23. It's not a big issue, although there is a risk of me deleting good emails with the rubbish, But I wondered if anyone here might have any idea why this happens. It only seems to affect Martin's postings. Allan F |

Hi Allan I posted a few days ago about some Templot emails not arriving or arriving very (days) late. I’m fairly sure there’s something not right about the forum emails at the moment. With missing emails it’s a bit tricky to see what’s happened because I don’t have them! I’m still missing some Templot emails, so now it seems they arrive either on time or not at all. Maybe you’re getting extras to make up for my missing ones! Cheers, Paul |

That means any emails you are receiving must be coming via the old Templot group on Yahoo. YahooGroups recently changed their service to be an email list service only. The Yahoo email service is notoriously bad, frequently sending out emails late, or in the wrong order, or sometimes multiple copies of them. If you would prefer to receive emails directly from the Templot server, please go to: http://85a.co.uk/forum/my_account.php?watched_forums=1 and make the required settings. Most users tick all the boxes to receive emails from all sections of Templot Club. Remember to click Save at the bottom. Check also at: http://85a.co.uk/forum/my_account.php?edit_profile=1 that your email address is still correct. Then unsubscribe from Yahoo. cheers, Martin. |

Hi Martin, I tried to unsubscribe from the Yahoo service to cut down duplicated emails but received a failure email when using the unsubscibe link that is in each email from Yahoo :- "We are unable to process the message from <my registered email address> to <templot-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com>.The email address used to send your message is not subscribed to this group. If you are a member of this group, please be aware that you may only send messages and manage your subscription to this group using the email address(es) you have registered with Yahoo Groups." Rob |

Is that you? If so you are still subscribed to the Yahoo group. Do you want me to unsubscribe you? Assuming it works when I attempt to do that of course. Yahoo groups is now an unholy mess. With our 20-years of messages archive now deleted, and no search function, there is little point in continuing with it. But I can't scrub it while I know some long-time members still receive their Templot Club emails that way. cheers, Martin. |

Hi Martin, I too have been inundated with emails, from groups I belong/belonged too, I had forgotten about Yahoo groups, I've just managed to log in and this would explain why I am getting multiple emails from groups (some of which I had forgotten about) I have just tried to unsubscribe but seem to be unable, could you do the same for me. Luckily I am moving house in the next couple of months and will love that email address, which will cure the problem for other groups Regards Terry Beddoes |

Hi Terry, I have removed from the Templot group on Yahoo a member with a login beginning TEZ and a tiscali email address. I hope that was you? Sorry I can't do anything about any other Yahoo groups. cheers, Martin. |

Hi Martin, The Yahoo emails appear to have ceased - none have landed in my inbox yesterday or today. Thanks for doing this. Rob |
