+cal25 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I have been trying since Saturday to get queries with no luck. I have tried different email accounts (default is Yahoo), with no luck. Each querie shows that it has run but they are not getting to my email so that I can use them. I noticed that others had problems at the end of last week. Is it better for them now? I have searched and found no explanation for what is going on. Link to comment
+Team_CSG Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 (edited) Are you checking a day of the week to run? I had the same problem, the I select a day of week to run and the option to uncheck after the query runs. Edited August 29, 2007 by arthurat Link to comment
+cal25 Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 (edited) Yes the day of the week is checked. The "Last Generated" colum shows: 8/29/2007 12:22:23 am 8/29/2007 12:22:20 am 8/29/2007 12:22:24 am It appears to me that they are running, just not being sent to my email. I have tried different queries, new queries, and the "MY FINDS QUERIE" whith the same result. I have a different address on one of them, sending it to my work address in case it was a Yahoo deal, but neither one is working. The system has worked for me with few problems for the last year and a half or so. Now its not working at all. Edited August 29, 2007 by cal25 Link to comment
+Solo Polo Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I am also having problems receiving pocket queries. Groundspeak shows them sent, but nothing shows up in my email. I use Yahoo and have been using queries for the last four years. Link to comment
+Miragee Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I got six PQs the other day. They ran, and arrived in my InBox, immediately. I use gmail.com. Link to comment
+cal25 Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 I just tried gmail on my last available PQ of the day and it came thru. Went ahead and changed my primary address to gmail so maybe I will be back in buisness. Thanks for the help. Still not sure whats going on at yahoo and not sure why I could not get them on my work address either. Link to comment
+Solo Polo Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Groundspeak said that Yahoo may be blocking bulk mailings and I was told to contact them to fix the problem. I also had a gmail address so I tried them and my query came right through. I now also have insta notify that never worked before. Bye Bye Yahoo. Link to comment
+hisgrace1 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 What is a gmail...I have been trying to run pocket queries and I get a e-mail that there are no results...how can that be when I'm asking for ones within a 100 miles radius that I haven't found...... Link to comment
+Miragee Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 gmail is Google's email service. If you are getting no results in your email, you should Preview your Pocket Query before actually running it, so you don't "waste" one of your five PQs allowed per day. You are probably requesting options that cancel each other out. Here is how I set up one section of the form: Link to comment
+TeamFimJam Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 As the other folks have said before, try using gmail.com for your email service, it's free and there appears to be no limits on incoming mail and you get 3 Gigs of space. I have run pocket queries and sent them to gmail and have gotten every query. Not that I've had many positive results, but as another member said, less options chosen results in a better query with results. Got my first route query to yield 300 hits after trying to get it to work for a week. Thanks for the help! Link to comment
+rayt333 Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 The problem was with Yahoo, there was a backup of email for the last 1 1/2 weeks, it is fixed as of now, I received like 10 days worth of email yesterday along with all the lost queries. I did go to the webmail site and seen all the mail earlier last week and I got the queries that was there and I also got them yesterday when it was downloaded to my pop3 account. Link to comment
