Hello there!
Email notifications are sent only to you when there are:

- Comments held for moderation
- New blog Follows from WordPress.com users
And in addition:
- Forgotten password assistance
- Updates from blogs you follow
- New blog activation

Unfortunately, email notifications to the Administrator when a post is published is not currently supported.
Let me know if you had more questions about this. Thanks!

I stopped getting email notifications of new posts from the blogs I follow 2 days ago?
Is this a temporary WP glitch?

Apologies for my incomplete reply earlier. Have you tried looking at Settings -> Email Post Changes in your admin panel? I’m not seeing the option enabled.

Did you stop receiving notifications from all blog subscriptions or just a few of them?

@ Druesome
Hi Druesome. Stopped getting notifications of new posts from all blogs i’ve subscribed to. Any suggestions?
-
@ druesome –
Thanks – I’ve tried enabling that function and that might help. But I used to get notified for every new post. I was under the impression that anyone who was following the blog would get an email notice when a new post was published. I was following my own blog, so I should be getting these notices. Any ideas on how to fix that?

Upon checking our logs, I’m seeing subscription emails sent you in the past few hours. Can you kindly look into your Spam folder if the emails somehow found their way there, or in the Social / Promotions tabs?
Sorry! I was under the impression that you wanted to track posts made by your authors in the administrative sense. However, I’m not seeing you following your blog at the moment. Can you please visit your blog here:
http://teachingdiablogue.wordpress.com/
And click on the “Follow” link in the admin bar to follow it?

Also, please be sure you have your desired subscription settings properly setup:

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to let me know. Thanks!

It’s possible that one email you received from WordPress.com was marked as spam as a few days ago by accident, which would lead to others getting caught in your email’s spam filter. You can try adding WordPress.com email addresses to your contact list in your email client to keep them from getting caught in the spam filter. :)

Thanks, Rachel. After un-spamming all the WP emails everything seems to be working again. I blame my fingers for whatever happened :)
