  8. @WestHost Looks like you fixed it. I started getting my notifications from Twitter.com again today!
  9. @WestHost My best guess? People gain lots of followers & receive notifications for ea. Westhost blocks Twitter bulk mails predelivery.
  10. @WestHost So I give my WB address to Twitter, they send me notifications. Those stop, Twitter tells me to reconfirm address, not getting it.
  11. @WestHost I cannot receive mail from twitter.com. They send me mails to confirm my address still works, they never arrive. Mailbox not full.
  12. @WestHost Any reason that Twitter notifications might be blocked to my writersbloc.net? Been happening for months, getting tired of warnings
