It's not defaulted for anyone -- but it can be turned on in your My Profile->Communication Preferences.

I turned it on to do some "dogfooding" for the feature. Best for people who use their forum as a marketing tool -- not a place they want people to come and look around all the time (ad dollars). 😲

I'm noticing some issues with it as well -- it's sort of random when I receive emails. Strangely, only noticed the issue on this server. Very strange.

I think it might be an issue with my mail server, honestly. YAF appears to be doing things properly.

I don't think this is a YAF problem. An extra config setting for

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.mail.smtpclient.timeout.aspx

would help.

Hey Everyone,

I have been using the latest build 1.9.6.1 and it seemed to fix all the issues I was having with Digest sending EXCEPT for the automated Daily Digest that is supposed to be sent in the morning. I get test emails, forced digest sends as well as emails when someone posts to a topic or comment without issue.

Any thoughts as to why the automated send is not functioning properly?

Thanks!

Nick

Can someone please take a look at the last post for this discussion? I am getting Digests to send, but the Daily automatic Digest send does not appear to be working. I have all the settings in place, Force Send is fine, etc.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, my customer is breathing down my neck on this one.

Thanks!

Nick

It's probably because you're on shared hosting and the app pool is timing out. Solution would be to ping that site every 10 minutes or so and keep it alive with a cheap or free ping service such as Pingdom.

Thanks for your response!

I am not on shared hosting, but I can check to see if the app pool shuts down in the default number of minutes. I can set this to only recycle once a day. Can you elaborate as to why the app pool shutting down would have this effect? What is the process that is taking place when sending Daily Digests?

App Pool has been running since your response and still no Daily Digests being sent. Email responses are being sent, however.

Any other thoughts as to what might be wrong?

Thanks!

Nick
