Seems like they had a clogged pipe, they just unclogged it and all the old e-mails are spilling out.

Yep, here too (and it's raining in TO now, with whats left of Katrina), as when I checked my emails this evening, all the missing one's from FT (earliest back from July 23) with replies to threads and some PM's all were there. Also two threads that I had sent to my email for forwarding, from August 2 and 3, finally showed up.

But oddly enought, replies made in the past day to threads I am subscribed to have not arrived. 
I'll expect them September 30. At least I now understand the new system.

Thanks Webflyer folks for eventually fixing this. But next time please listen to us before it gets to this state. Some of us actually do know a thing or two about the Internet and servers. In fact I'm sure some of us would volunteer to assist in a critical situation should that happen in the future.

I think it's starting again
I just checked and I had one notification of a thread. When I clicked on the thread, I saw that there were more than half a dozen posts. Is the problem starting again?

What if you do not get the initial advice. System fails then.

It still does not answer my question - where does anyone official say you now only get:
One notification, regardless of the number of posts, until you visit that forum again.
If you are imputing that if there are 10 replies to a thread but you only get one email until you visit it, that is quite wrong.
I do not get 10 - more like 2 or 3 most times.
