Missing out myLot alert emails - do you suffer as well?

Hi, I've found out a very disturbing phenomenon. I don't receive all the emails I should be receiving from myLot. For instance - I don't receive emails about new posts my friends start (even though I mentioned I want to). I also don't always receive alerts about comments to my posts, no comments to my responses, or friend requests etc.
The system seems to be very selective in what it sends me - which is pretty bad, because it is very hard to track all of the posts and tell to which someone answered, and keep up with discussions...
Do you suffer from the same thing? Have you missed on an interesting discussion because of that? Any other pros and cons for this phenomenon? And do you think it is intentional or a bug in the system?

That's odd from my end it does not happen at all. But I do accept that I did have an experience like yours but I was able to solved it when Yahoo had tagged it as spam and I see the Mylot emails there and what I just did is just tagged it as normal file and so far until this day my mylot emails go straight in my inbox and not on the spam mailbox.

Or you may check on your personal settings at Mylot. It may inadvertently been unchecked that is why you are not able to received emails from them.

All is checked... except the myLot digest. I don't really know why some messages skip, and some don't. For instance, I did not get any email about the last comment you made here...

Thanks, I'll try that. Even though, I can't see any myLot email in my spam box... It might be that I need to contact gmail to solve this? Thanks anyway :)

Might be that you haven't noticed? Check your posts, and see if you received emails about all of the responses... have you really got all the alerts you should have?

I don't really know... but I to me the emails don't delay - they just don't arrive. I thought I had an email problem, but now that I use gmail, I don't know what the problem is... or how to solve it.
