Running MyBB 1.8.8  at http://forums.naturalphilosophy.org/ installed December 2016

The forum is only sending minimal email notifications of posts. Some are being sent. What we want is that every new forum / thread/ and reply is announced to members who check the subscription box.

I searched the Community and User doc. Multiple people have had this problem. I couldn't find any resolution.

Hi,

have you checked the "System Mail Logs" to see if there's any error?

Thanks for helping. Note, I did get an email in my personal mail reader from the MyBB Community board that you replied on. This is what I am trying to restore on the Natural Philosophy board.

I checked the System Mail Log.  4 entries. These were general broadcast messages that failed last August. One example:
 
"New Thread in Aether and Field Theory - MOVED to new category 4"  / MyBB was unable to send the email using the PHP mail() function.  08-16-2017

The board has sent out many general and posting notifications since then. But not consistently.
