I open an FT email almost every day. As a test I temporarily changed my email address to another att.net email address and I got a subscription notification. I then changed it back to the original email and never even got the "click here to confirm" email.....

Looking back in this thread, I see this is not the first time I've had this problem. On 3/15/2018 I reported that all subscription emails stopped for me on 3/7. Then, on 3/22 they magically came back. Same email address

Edit:
So I added an alias to the same account (alias happens to be [MENTION=63256]yahoo[/MENTION].com) and set my FT email address to that and I immediately got the "click here to confirm" email. I really don't understand what is going on here. Clearly the email can get thru and is behaving differently based on which address is used?
