Email about messages

I have received a email informing me that I have a new message. When I click on the link to view the message it will bring me to this site but there are no new messages. My more recent message in my in-box is from August and I have received the notice twice this month of October.
It doesn't matter if I read the email on my computer or on my Galaxy SIII as the outcome is the same.

Any idea what is happening or how can I view the message?

Are you subscribed to any topics? You could be getting that message because a topic you subscribed to has had someone post to it.

Just checked and I am subcribing to two threads but the newest message in one is from Aug. 05 and the newest message in the other thread is May 15. Doesn't look like that's the answer. The email message was related to Oct. 30th.

Beth -

My roommate has received emails from womenrv@yahoo.com advising her that she has private messages from Dawn and one from Lori and they also relate to October 30th. To the best of our knowledge, she has never signed up on the forum (unless she did it when the forum was first started and doesn't remember).

I don't know how either Dawn or Lori would have her name or email. Should we be concerned?

Thanks,

Bonnie

Had gals from my Open Range Forum message me that they were getting messages from me from this forum about a week ago..but it has stopped...I did notice that the PM is, for some reason, auto sending group messaging to "new members"?? WHY? Don't know.....it is highlighted in Light Blue....it comes and goes....can't seem to figure it out.....Sorry, Bonnie, that your roommate got the message... :o Hopefully, Beth can get it fixed ;) ....cause I've tried.... :roll:

Lori

On edit: just went back to the PM "send a message" screen....only thing I noticed is at the top right where it says "Groups" there's a box in which there is written in light blue.....Newly Registered Members.....tried to clear it....didn't work...how it got there, I don't know... :roll: Hope this helps Beth to fix it...

Same thing here Lori. I tried to clear or delete that group in the box too. Could not do it.

Your roommate had signed up but had never posted - and has since been removed.

Lori and Dawn, I'll look at your accounts - somehow you are sending messages to all newbies - and that's people who have never posted ...

Lori and Dawn - that box is there on everyone's computer. Unless you highlight it, it won't send to them.

Okay, will check it when ever I'm there to be sure it isn't highlighted....but somehow it must have highlighted itself before....cause I never even noticed it before....

Thanks for checking it, Beth....

That could explain some of the mystery but I'm not a new member and I have posted messages.

I know there are problems reported on some apps with the latest IOS update for iPhone/iPad users so wonder if this is related. Maybe it was sent using an iPHone?

Could be the iPad. I send messages on it sometimes. The box has only recently shown up with that group. I don't highlight it, it's just there. I cannot delete either. Until I get my PC replaced, only have the iPad. Thank goodness I don't PM anything earth shattering. :lol:
