Is the email notification facility sure-fire? I suspect I am not receiving all the notifications from watched threads. I know I was without an internet connection for 6 days last week (Voltage fluctuations fried my modem and there was a line fault.). But I was suspicious about it before then.

My email client is Thunderbird with a dedicated folder for Focus
 
I have not noticed any issues and I just checked the email faults log. There are a few errors (much fewer than I would have thought) but unfortunately, email is a tough thing to track as there are multiple servers all along the path. All we can tell is that you are not in the email bounce or fail logs so I'm reasonably confident it left Xenfolio but can't comment on any intermediate.

Martin, have you checked your preferences, in your account?

I realise that emails are not 100% reliable but Gmail (which I use) is pretty good
