Hi there
I'm not receiving CodeProject's newsletters any more. Last newsletter I've received is from January 22th. I tried playing which my preference to revive them, but without success. Does anybody know whats going there, what could I be doing wrong?
Thanks

I've checked your account setting in both CodeProject and our Mailer system.
It looks like you should be receiving the Weekly and Daily Build.
Have you checked your junk folder?
Do you or your company have any Spam Filtering on emails that might be blocking the newsletters?

It's a long shot, but I've reached out to the author to see if they have backups.
Thanks,

If it was published can I see it? Nothing on the website says I can.

I've checked your account and there is no reason I can see that would prevent sending you the Insider.
Please check your Junk Folder and if it is in there, you should set the email address to not junk.

Strange indeed as it shows "Answer Accepted" on my side as of yesterday -

I agree that my solution is not a solution as it did not return the exact expected result, was more of a pointer than a correct answer...

Your answer I have accpeted. That was very ok, you gave me very good hints.

Can you please be more specific, does not make much sense right now. Which bookmarks are missing where?
Thanks.

10 spam/abuse reports on a user's posts (articles/messages/comments) should auto close their account.

I disagree, at least for "abuse" reports. It's perfectly reasonable to think that a specific message is inappropriate and should be removed, without also thinking the user who posted it should be booted as well.
The current system gives you the option to report just the message, or report both the message and the user. Changing it so you can't report a message without also reporting the user would not end well.

Of course, hence the reason to check if the user is a repeat offender.

You've been here over 9½ years, and posted over 1300 messages. If just 10 of those messages were deemed "inappropriate", do you think your account should automatically be closed?

I see your point. Only that this morning a spammer posted 6 spam articles and I could report their account once, which probably allowed them time to spam more of those articles.

To nuke an account you need 10 users.
If you had reported 6 articles, even when linking the account as you suggest, it would have still counted as only 1 user report.
Doing it in another way, would allow a user account nuke by only one reporter... that's really dangerous.
No real advantages, a lot of potential problems.

We have had automated spam waves, they posted several hundred messages pro minute. But only one or two messages pro spam account. Your suggestion would have brought nothing in that case.
In the case of this morning (we have some cases from time to time), it is still not a "serious issue", we are a big group in the S&A. Yeah, it gives a bit more time to post some spammy articles more, but it will not last a lot until they are gone.
I repeat myself: No real profit, a lot of headaches.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Search for articles:
Pasting a query name to the Textbox under "Saved Queries" and click on 'Save' has no effect.
If you come back to the search page the textbox under "Saved Queries" is empty.
Perhaps this is an early 1st April Joke?

Well it seems my hint about a joke was misunderstood.
The problem "If you come back to the search page the textbox under "Saved Queries" is empty" is really happening.

I used to be able to upvote comments. I don't seem to have that ability anymore. To be fair, it's been years since I've actively participated on this site due to the nature of my work.
