Hello Mr. Web Master Sir.....just an FYI for ya - not a complaint! ;)    I dont receive e-mail notification of postings until late evenings usually - sometimes even in middle of night. Therefore, I check site several times a day to make sure I dont miss something important! That also happens with Private Messages, which can be important. ( or at the least, very juicy!!!! )

Well that is a drawback of using an email provider like AOL or Homail.  I get emails with in a min or two tops when I get new PM's so I know the forum is generating them correctly.  What happens with big providers like AOL and Hotmail is that they have millions and millions of customers and get not only millions of emails but millions of spam messages.  With a forum generated email, the mail servers aren't really sure if its spam or not so it runs the emails threw all its filters to check.  By the time it goes threw all this and actually gets threw to you.. thats what happens..

If you like I can create an email account for you (johnna@craignheather.com or something like that) that you can use and set up your Outlook Express so you can check it easly.  Then you'll get it right away.  Up to you.
