FlyerTalk weekly mails?

I used to get a weekly mail with some "hot threads" and a bit more info...and it seems to have stopped coming a month or so ago... is it just me? or did it stop? I can't find anywhere on the site to re-subscribe -- anyone know where to do that?

Thanks!

Certainly, though the newsletter may be stuck in your spam filters or other black holes.

In the top navigation of FlyerTalk (to the right of the FlyerTalk logo) , you'll see the word "Extras." Under that pull down there will be a link for "TalkMail Newsletter." Use that link of go here:

http://www.flyertalk.com/talkmail/

Hope this helps and glad you miss it, i really enjoy reading it myself. Mikel has a nice sense of humor about our community "newspaper"....

Was TallkMail ever weekly? I thought it was a monthly deal. But since I haven't been able to receive it for MONTHS, I can't quite remember correctly by now.

What wharvey said, we've been having problems with TalkMail (for some FTers) in the last couple of months. After trying to "re-subscribe", whitelist, etc, some of us still can't get it in the inbox. Please refer to the existing discussion thread for this problem:

It actually seems to come out about 2-3x/mo.

There's another thread about this problem: TalkMail Issue.

EDIT: Sorry, lin821, I didn't see your reference to that thread, I just started responding to the first paragraph, without reading all the way though.

Also, some of us can't even get the confirmation e-mails.

Wow! That frequent! I guess I do miss out a lot of FT news, don't I? All my screaming "I want my TalkMail" over the months in the other thread obviously doesn't help at all!

ps. ed1, I just edited my earlier post and put the thread title in bold so folks won't miss it again!

It can't hurt, I usually put my link titles in bold, but the URLs I normally leave in the regular formatting. I find that the blue tends to get lost at a quick glance (especially short link titles). I might have seen it in bold, but I read the first paragraph and decided to reply at that point, and didn't read further while writing my reply (which I usually do).

BTW, I recommended combining this into the other thread.

EDIT: I'm going to have to leave a Firefox tab open to the TalkMail page, because I keep forgetting to read it without the reminder of the e-mail. BTW, you can see by the drop-down how frequently they're sent out.

Thanks!

Thanks everyone for replying!
The first trick in being able to search for info on this would have been remembering that the newsletter is called TalkMail, rather than FlyerTalk...

but I do miss it, so hope the re-subscribing works for me! Otherwise, great to know about the archives being available.

Thanks -- this is a great community, I love that people are so helpful and responsive :-) ^

You're welcome. It's hard to search for something when you can't remember the name or figure out something reasonably unique about it for search terms. At least you didn't miss a thread on the same index page.

What's the @____________ part of your e-mail address? There are several like all the Microsoft (msn.com, hotmail.com, webtv.net), rr.com, etc. listed in the other thread that don't seem to work. Did you get the subscribe confirmation e-mail?
