    Late / duplicate email of replies to threads?

    I've noticed lately get some duplicate or really late emails when someone replied to a thread. For example this was posted "03-03-2021, 06:33 AM" PST

    https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/s...2#post30652892

    But I got the email just 10 minutes ago:

    I can dig up other examples if that will be useful.
    '81 E21 320i / '90 E30 325i / '̶9̶2̶ ̶E̶3̶4̶ ̶5̶2̶5̶i̶t (sold) / '15 Toyota XW30 / '̶̶8̶0̶ ̶E̶2̶1̶ ̶3̶2̶0̶i̶A̶ (sold)

    thanks, admin was already informed, his reply: The site queues up emails 100 at a time and dispatches them every 10 or so minutes. If we have an influx of messages that have to go out, it's possible that message could be queued up for days.

    not getting messages

    I continue to get emails from Bimmerforums with a link to a new message, but when I go to BF inbox, there is nothing new.
    Today I got two of those emails from one guy at 1:40pm and 4:30pm and then two from another guy at 5:40 and 8:00pm, and then no messages when I go to my Inbox ~~???

    In the past, when I see an email from BF, and click the link, it opens straight to the new message.

    Is anyone else having this problem?

    You might also encounter this problem if the PM that was sent to you was deleted. The email might have gotten to you late and the staff have already cleaned up unsolicited messages.
    Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by hundreds of engineers that get paid thousands of dollars for something you bought at Pep Boys because your buddy who doesn't have a job told you it was 'better'?!?
