I'm new to this site, so please bear with me. I asked "Quark" what a "torrent" is and and checked the "let me know" box for email. When I pulled you up now and checked into the Forum thread, Quark said he/she had left a message for me.

I've checked my messages and there's nothing there. Neither was an email.

What am I doing wrong?

On the very top of every page it says something like "Messages: 1 unread". click on the "1 unread" part to view your messages

or click on "My Profile" and then "My Messages"

and the email notification is currently broken. on the to-do list to fix
