No Quilting Board E-mail for .... two days.
I have not gotten any board e-mail for the past two days. I have gotten messages from the two threads that I am following. Is the Board in transition or hacked or .... Would love to return to seeing other work and follow those interesting conversations about just about everything quilting.

This is the second day that I have not received my e-mail also. I checked the instructions about this problem and cannot connect with the e-mail to report my problem. I know how to get onto the QB without the e-mail, but I enjoy the e-mail and pass it on to several of my friends. I sure hope it gets fixed soon.

If your emails have not already started again, please send your inquiry to [email protected]
I am not at all involved in the emailing of the digests and newsletters.
The first and most important thing to remember is that the emails are not the board.
They are only a link to a smattering of thread links.
They are rarely the newest threads and barely scratch the surface of all that's available here.
If you know you want to come to the board often, the emails are a waste of time.
they slow you down.
why wait for an email?
You never need those emails to connect to the board.
Just come straight to http://www.quiltingboard.com
If you like starting with the sample list of links, go to the Resources tab.
Make sure to keep exploring, though, so you don't miss any of the good stuff. :-) The Archive link leads to lists of threads in reverse order - newest first.
The Home tab is the starting point to get to everything.
You can add it to your browser favorites/bookmarks, put a shortcut on your desktop, or (if you are a total QB junkie like me) you can make it your home page.
Try using the direct route.
You might find you like it better. :-)
Check your junk/spam folder.
If you use gmail, look through all of the tabs there are now in the “upgraded” inbox.
Even though you have asked to receive the emails, many services treat them like junk anyway.
They disable the links or send them straight to spam/junk.
They sometimes don’t make it through to user inboxes – not even to the junk folders.
Also, if you have not already added the QB to your email’s safe senders list, please do:
Please take the following steps to add a contact to your safe senders list:
1. Open your email account (example: AOL, Gmail, Yahoo! or Outlook).
2. Locate your “address book” or “contacts”.
3. Add [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected] to your address book or list of contacts.
4. Save your changes.
If your email program provides for it, also add [email protected], @lifestyle.ibemail.com and @quiltingboard.com to your list of safe senders (or the equivalent).
