    Hey there :) Let me explain my problem. I've changed work recently and I am no longer able to set up my personal Email address at work as I used to. So now when I post something in the forums and someone replies the Email notification goes to my personal Email address which I cant access while at work... I could change my Email address to use the work one but then I'll have the same problem at home. Could we get the option to set up multiple Email addresses for notifications to go to? Thanks :thumbsup:

    Why not just set you home account to forward it to your work account.

      That runs the risk of forwarding stuff that shouldn't be going on a server ran by a server paranoid. Setting up a proxy gmail account that forwarded to both addresses might work though.

          The problem is that CP has a habit of changing its address. In the last 5 years I've received email from all of these addresses: forums@codeproject.com noreply@mail4.codeproject.com noreply@mail5.codeproject.com noreply@mail3.codeproject.com noreply@mail2.codeproject.com noreply@mail1.codeproject.com noreply@codeproject.com noreply@mail.codeproject.com noreply@maillist.codeproject.com webmaster@codeproject.com answers@codeproject.com

            We deliberately prefix all CodeProject emails with [CodeProject] specifically to aid in setting up rules.

              There always is "codeproject.com" in the from-URL, and "[CodeProject]" in the subject line. That should be sufficient to filter unambiguously. And when it isn't, you could use one e-mail account for receiving all CP stuff, then forward from there. :)

              Please use < PRE > tags for code snippets, it preserves indentation, and improves readability.

                but that would require me to change my existing email rule and would deprive me of being able to :rolleyes: every time I see the rule and am reminded that there apparently used to be a separate email address for each server. :doh:

                  When would you like me to schedule the next address change? Or shall I just, you know, surprise you?

                    During vacation would probably be the most annoying. I'll probably (80%) be taking a long weekend Aug 4-9th. Does that work for you? :laugh:

                      After about a week I got it to work, the problem was that at my new company we have a whole bunch of infrastructure in London that zaps incoming spam way before it reaches my inbox in South Africa and the verification E-mail to forward to my work address was flagged as spam. Thank Gawd our spam system sends me an email once a week giving me the option to release some of these E-mails :) Thanks for suggesting this Dan!
