Hi. I found out what was wrong with the mail feature on the site. Now we can send email to each other but more importantly the “Subscribe to this topic” feature works again.
When you suscribe to a topic the forum will email you whenever there is a new post in that topic. That way you don’t have to return every day to see new posts.
Also you can use the ‘active topics‘ link to see any topics that have new posts since you were last here.
