Okay, this is a concern that has arisen from the issue I posted about yesterday which turned out to be an email filtering problem on the recipients' end. So it's unrelated. Or at least it appears so. However, the issue has come to focus because of the very troubleshooting steps performed during yesterday's situation.
The issue is as follows:
For some reason, the administrator accounts on our forum site are currently unable to receive AUT quote email notifications. All other users, including moderators and members of other usergroups are able to receive AUT quote email notifications. Administrator account toplinks quote notifications continue to appear properly.
This issue occurs on each of the two existing administrator accounts. The one that I generally use was able to receive AUT quote notifications up until February of this year. I should mention that the hardware for the dedicated server that hosted our forum site --while the administrator account quote email notifications were working-- had failed and was thus replaced in early March. I migrated the entire file system to a new HDD on a new physical server, seemingly without issue. So I suppose it could be an OS-level permissions matter. If so, I'm yet unsure which files or directories might be responsible.
Note: This issue doesn't appear related to the forum software's usergroup permissions. All of the Dragonbyte Tech AUT permissions for the administrator usergroup are set to 'No' with the exception being "Can Mention Usergroups" which is set to "Yes".
There must be an easy answer to correct this issue. It just seems that finding it is the problem. Any thoughts will be appreciated.
Thanks
EDIT:
I've just checked a few more things and this is clearly not a Dragonbyte AUT issue, much less a bug. While I don't know what's causing the admin account email notification failures, neither vB subscribed threads email notifications nor AUT mention email notifications are working for admin accounts either. I'm unsure when they stopped working because I don't use these email notifications on the admin accounts. The strangest part is that email messages that are manually sent to either of the admin account email addresses via the 'Send Email to Users' CP function or via the email diagnostics test function always immediately arrive at the destination inboxes. Sorry to raise this issue here... I should have tested all of this first.
