Esri Community: How to be notified via e-mail as a comment is added to one of my ideas?

 

I couldn’t figure out how to be notified via e-mail as a comment is added to one of my ideas.

 

  • All  relevant settings are checked as per the screenshots below. Nothing is related to ideas section
  • I did check the spam\junk but it’s not there

It's one of the email notification settings:

It will also show up in your notification feed on the site:

Thank you Kendall.

 

This option is already checked in my settings as per the screenshot below. What is the explanation that I’m not notified via e-mail as I get Kudos in my ideas?

That's a good question! If you've got lots of your email notifications set to "immediately", the sheer volume of emails might get flagged as being spam. I'd check your email's junk/spam filter to make sure it's not getting caught there.

I checked my spam\junk folder but they are not there! By the way, the “kudos” shouldn’t be so many!

I don't just mean the kudos notices, rather that if you're getting lots of email notifications in general it could raise flags. But it sounds like you've ruled that out...

I have been struggling in getting the notifications even in the pervious version of the esri forum (geonet). I think it’s not stable:

 

  • Sometimes, I do receive the notifications
  • All relevant options and settings in the esri community are checked correctly
  • Nothing in the spam\junk folder
