I am only signed up for the Weekly newsletter at the moment, and I received that on Monday, along with other messages. But nothing since then. I am happy to help but have to go out in about an hour so would not be able to give much feedback until tomorrow.

Ignore me if I'm being stupid here, but have you tried re-assigning notifications to maillist.codeproject.com and seeing if they go out then? That would at least narrow it down a little, regardless of what it shows.

That's actually an interesting idea. Let me pass this on.

I'm beginning to wonder if some people are getting emails. I have been responding to a number of questions today, and getting replies posted. Although I don't receive any emails, I can track the answers via the notifications dropdown. So are other people getting emails from my replies, and is this a conspiracy against me and @OriginalGriff?

Whatever you've just done, it looks like it might have worked. Having had no emails for QA comments so far this week, I've just received two for comments posted earlier today.
EDIT: Make that 13 and counting.

We found the issue.

Chris, I just received a batch of 160 CP forum notification emails.

Google Calendar reminding me there is a new episode of The Grand Tour tomorrow, an email from the garage to confirm the AC Compressor Pump I need to order for my car, but nothing from CP since "The Daily Build" at 12:34 (current time 16:35).
I did get your direct test message at 00:15 this morning, so it's probably not any spam filters killing things.
Loads of notifications though. I'm beginning to suspect this is just to get me to read them...

It looks like the hamsters were just fed some laxative because a whole slew of late notifications just dumped into my email.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Yeah thanks for the visual.

What are you Quick Answer filters set as?
cheers

What you're seeing is a lack of questions tagged Unicode. Remove "Unicode" from your filter and you'll see all the new stuff.

I removed this tag and used Win32api which is much more common. I got to a question from 2013.
color in console in c++
I personally see no problem answering old questions. If a question is no longer valid (for example, a question about Windows XP), it should be deleted or mark is "inactive". Otherwise, answering an older question might serve other people who might search a solution for the same problem.
In any case, I deleted my answer until we have a consensus.

Instead of using the "Interested" filter it is probably better to use the "Ignored" one, to exclude subjects you are not interested in. That way you have less chance of opening all these old questions.

Sure. I will next time. Thanks for the tip.

What does CP use for its syntax highlighting in <pre> tags?
".45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly" - JSOP, 2010 ----- You can never have too much ammo - unless you're swimming, or on fire. - JSOP, 2010 ----- When you pry the gun from my cold dead hands, be careful - the barrel will be very hot. - JSOP, 2013

A homegrown system that we're actively looking to replace.

The lowest impact one I've found is something called highlight.js (highlightjs.org[^]). It does pretty much what yours does, except I have to pre-escape < >characters if I'm showing something like List<someclass> unless i put white space when the type and the brackets. Unfortunately, the accompanying javascript is in pack format which makes t extremely touchy for changes. I added some C# types to it (.Net framework stuff), and changeed the of type color but that's about it.
The pointy bracket problem appears to be that the javascript code only looks for keywords between brackets, and not types. "string" works, my "String" (which I've defined as a type ) does not.

AFAIK highlight.js doesn't handle ASP.NET or Razor properly. We also prefer to colourise on the server side to save you guys the extra processing.

Yeah, there is no support at all for Razor (but I thought I saw something for asp.net). I saw that right away. To be fair though, I haven;t found anything yet that supports razor.
I've started a class to parse the c# on the server side, although my needs are a lot less severe than CP's.
Why do you want to ditch your home-grown code? Maintenance requirements because of changing language features?
