This issue has been ongoing for several months and, as of now, I am not aware of any flyertalk member that does indeed receives forum updates. Nobody in this 17 page thread came forward and stated that everything is working fine.
I do not believe that there is a reason to keep this thread active and recommend to close it.
We have provided information on trouble shooting. However nothing has changed and no one has received any subscribed forum updates for several months.
Further discussion, IMHO, is pointless.
