Yes, I have not received the Daily Digest either since the April 1st. I am so missing the Digest as my morning ritual. I followed Patrice's advice but it did not work.

I did this and still have not seen one. Hope it comes back soon.

I am still getting my Daily Digest, but I NEVER use it. The board is always here, and I would rather see the latest topics than the most talked about. I have saved links to each section that I normally browse sorted by time, so it's a simple click to get to each one. However, if you really must have it in the Daily Digest form, go to Resources in the top line (right by Home) and then select Daily Digest.

It hit me just a few minutes ago that I haven't seen it in my inbox for at least a week. I don't come every day, but I like the reminder.

What is a locked thread?

I have not received a post since Monday, I contacted Patrice and she said she was not the one to contact we need to send messages to [email protected]. I just sent a message, maybe if we all bombard them with messages it will get corrected faster.

If your emails have not already started again, please send your inquiry to [email protected]

I am not at all involved in the emailing of the digests and newsletters.
I’m afraid there is nothing I can do, personally, 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 thread links.
They 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?

You never need those emails to connect to the board.
Just come straight to http://www.quiltingboard.com

If you like starting with the sample list of links, go to the Resources tab.
Make sure to keep exploring, though, so you don't miss any of the good stuff. :-) The Archive link leads to lists of threads in reverse order - newest first.
The Home tab is the starting point to get to everything.

You can add it 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).
