Did Email Alerts Change?

I used to get email alerts on new posts with the body of the post in the email, but now the post's content is not showing up with the email notification. Is this something I can fix or is it a "new feature" ?

Yep. Here it is straight from the boss:

Pipes Magazine.com Emails are FINALLY Unblocked! :: PipesMagazine.com

After 8 days, I finally got notified that Microshit is unblocking our new server and that it can take 24-48 hours to propagate. They were wrong the whole time and it took this long to convince them. Yet with their diligent efforts at blocking innocent and wanted emails to our members, my junk...

I preferred the old way but I understand why it was changed.

I use Outlook preview, so I do miss that. I subscribe to both classified sections, to monitor posts there, and the preview was a quick way to determine if there was an issue. But I get the objective.

Sometimes my spam filter deletes subscription alerts before I see them. Usually, they can be found in the "Junk" mail folder. I'm occasionally successful in re-training the spam filter by moving those messages back to the inbox. That trick will last a couple of weeks.

I've had no problem with them.

It's a feature to get folks to check out the thread and reply there.
