Re: Getting a little out of hand
you could always register a new hotmail or yahoo account and change the email address in your profile.... so the notification gets send there and you don´t have them in your normal adress anymore....

Re: Getting a little out of hand
not a bad idea. Id just thought id show Keith first because he was saying something about it being read as spam a while back, perhaps thats why
Re: Getting a little out of hand
Some other people have posted about the same issue (rosm and olzen, I think), so it's not just you. Whatever it is, it's clearly a complete waste of bandwidth!

Re: Getting a little out of hand
Yes, that is no good. I think I know how to fix it. I shall have a look into it now. Its a case of the forum software not being able to delete a little temporary file it makes quick enough which sends out the emails. Very annoying stuff and a complete waste of bandwidth for all involved.
You could set up a folder on your email accounts and apply a filter rule so that all npfadmin@nep... email goes into there if it is causing you a real concern right now.

Re: Getting a little out of hand
There were 30,000+ files in the "cache" when there should only be about 100. The forum template system and some other files are cached to save on server resources, but the permissions had been changed by someone somehow!! I think we have a hacker in our midst!
