Haven't been getting The Board emails for a long time.
Can someone tell me how to get back on the Boards emails?
Thanks,

Check your settings, make sure you are set up to receive them and that they are going to the correct address.

Please send your inquiry to [email protected]
The first and most important thing to remember is that the emails are not the board.
They are only a link to a smattering of the most viewed threads.
Those are rarely the newest threads and barely scratch the surface of all that's available here.
If you know you want to come to the board often, the emails are a waste of time.
They slow you down. Why wait for an email?
Why let a remote computer decide what you should read?
To start at the Home Page, go to http://www.quiltingboard.com.
If you like starting with the sample list of links, go to http://www.quiltingboard.com/resources/daily-digest-4/.
Want to see the newest threads? Go to http://www.quiltingboard.com/sitemap/.
That’s the Archive, which lists threads in reverse order - newest first.
Want to see the threads with the newest comments added?
Go to http://www.quiltingboard.com and then click on What’s New.
You can add any or all of those links to your browser favorites/bookmarks, put a shortcut on your desktop, or (if you are a total QB junkie like me) you can make it your home page.
Try using the direct route.
You might find you like it better. :-)
Check your junk/spam folder.
If you use gmail, look through all of the tabs there are now in the “upgraded” inbox.
Even though you have asked to receive the emails, many services treat them like junk anyway.
They disable the links or send them straight to spam/junk.
They sometimes don’t make it through to user inboxes – not even to the junk folders.
Also, if you have not already added the QB to your email’s safe senders list, please do:
Please take the following steps to add a contact to your safe senders list:
1. Open your email account (example: AOL, Gmail, Yahoo! or Outlook).
2. Locate your “address book” or “contacts”.
3. Add [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected] to your address book or list of contacts.
4. Save your changes.
If your email program provides for it, also add [email protected], @lifestyle.ibemail.com and @quiltingboard.com to your list of safe senders (or the equivalent).
