They used to be kind of useful when I was interested in the thread and kept me up to date. But now I get emails about stuff people posted the day before and I've already read. Can we fix that please?

Hmm... this is news to me, I didn't change anything that I know of. Did this start yesterday?

No it's been going on since the new design. I just haven't bothered to complain yet. Can you tell it's really stressing me out?

I am getting old updates too. I thought it was my work's mail server not passing them through.

Yes my email is always hours delays, also Taptalk for mobile has been funky with time stamp over the past week about80% of the times.

I just logged in and found I had received a PM a couple of hours ago. Even though I still have email notifications turned on for PMs I didn't receive one. In the past I would get an email instantly whenever a new PM came in. Maybe I'll get an email later??

I finally received the email, almost 24 hours after the pm was sent

I think it happened with vBulletin 4.2. I don't think earlier versions had email queing. It's useful if I was using the forum for say, sending mass emails but I use MailChimp as a 3rd party email provider. So it's not necessary and I have disabled it.
