Nothing ever sent, or should I say "received" in my @excite.com since June 8, 2007. That's the last Talkmail I ever received, even after I resubscribed (3 times) and had confirmation email on 8/22/07. Eight more issues were published but zero received.

As for my Gmail account, I subscribed and immediately got confirmation email on 9/26/07. Between 9/26/07 and 11/23/07, the only issue I ever received was the 10/11/07 one, "In Search of FlyerTalk". Technically speaking, that was not a "real" Talkmail. Gmail originally identified it as SPAM, I whilelisted it right away. Even so, according to TM archives, during these two-month period, 5 issues were published but NONE was delivered to my gmail account.

Is this a webmail issue (which I doubt it) or FT hamster issue? If the confirmation email came through, why not the real TalkMail??

Being non-techie and all, I am perfactly able to follow all the tech instructions, which I did. Still no TalkMail. What else am I supposed to do in order to get TalkMail showing up in my inbox?
Good question, I wish I had an answer for you. After several months of subscribing to several different e-mail addresses, I've only gotten two to finally get through.

Both my @msn and @ gmail accounts landed it in my spam/junk folders, but I clicked the not spam/junk. Hopefully I'll now continue to receive TalkMail in those inboxes. At least the e-mail account I use daily has received the first issue, now if it will only continue.

To make things even more confusing I was getting TalkMail at my @mail.ru account which was being forwarded to my @webtv.net address and going to my inbox that way with no problems until I subscribed to it at my @msn account and canceled my @mail.ru subscription, but a direct sub to the @webtv address isn't working yet.

All I can say is good luck!
