Yep. I got two of these this morning as well. Sent an email to the staff. We'll see what they have to say, but this could be related I'm guessing.

Check the date on the email notification...

The PM notification no doubt refers to an old PM that you've already read.

So.. bingo.

No idea what is behind the pms that you haven't seen -- I can tell you that most of what you are getting is very outdated.

Yep. All are from the last month or so. By the way, they're still coming, so it looks like the block did not work.

Really sorry folks -- when I found the problem and fixed it I didn't realize that the system had queued up all the old messages.

RE:old PM's

So, is it fixed? I had 8 of them this morning. And a couple more came in later.
Last time was 9:17 AM PDT. I would guess they are all old ones, but I have
no way of telling.

I just got an email from almost 2 weeks ago. It's not a notification but an actual email from a FTer.
