windows 10 is probably not the culprit unless it somehow made changes to the email program you use.

even though people can sign up to receive them, the email reminders share many characteristics common to junk mail.
it's no surprise that a lot of email servers and anti-virus programs flag and block them as junk.

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.

the following steps might work, but i can't guarantee anything:

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).

if they don't, then Please send your inquiry to [email protected]
That way, your report will reach the person who manages that system.

I am not at all involved in the emailing of the digests and newsletters, so there is nothing I can personally do to help.

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.

You don't need the emails in order to access the board.

To start at the Home Page, go to http://www.quiltingboard.com.

If you still prefer 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. :-)
