Hi there, I have checked and I have my site set up so I should receive notification of comments that anyone makes on my blog but I never receive the notifications. I have run through the things to check and that is all done fine. I was initially getting notifications that I had comments that need approving – now I don’t receive any notifications except when someone starts to follow my blog. Thanks heaps

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Thank You so much. I thought I had done all that but will go back again and check.
Also while here – I have it set that anyone who comments on my blog leaves their email but I can’t see where to find their email address to reply to them…any ideas …and I didn’t receive an email notification so can’t check there
Thank heaps !
