Well, we are an hour behind you, Alan, so the post above shows 10:19 and my email notification shows the same time, so in this case (and, indeed, in most cases) the notification was instant. I have never received notifications of edited posts.

Here's an example of my earlier comment - in this thread:

http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...ml#post4593195

I received notification of Post #7 (timed on the board at 21:48 on 22/02/2017) at the same time it was posted, but I got the notification for Post #4 at 00:16 on 23/02/2017 (on the board at 19:37 on 22/02/2017) and for Post #3 at 03:51 on 23/02/2017 (on the board at 18:52 on 22/02/2017). There were other out-of-synch notifications (for other threads) at that time - I could give some more examples, but it takes a while to keep checking back and forth with two tabs open.

Also, yesterday I received a few double-notifications on a few different threads, which is why I said the system is still a bit flakey - not anything to bother me too much, though.

Hi Pete, ( I got pretty well instant notification of your reply )

http://www.excelforum.com/excel-gene...ml#post4593195
_ .. notification of Post #7 at time it was posted, . on the board at 21:48 on 22/02/2017)
_ .. notification fo Post #4 at 00:16 on 23/02/2017 (on the board at 19:37 on 22/02/2017)
_ .. ------ and for Post #3 at 03:51 on 23/02/2017 .(on the board at 18:52 on 22/02/2017)...

Interesting, maybe that ( .... .few instances where I have received a notification of a later response (after I have visited the thread again) BEFORE an earlier response. ) is a new one.. good for the record. ( maybe a sort of flushing out after the event )

Well, you seem to have taken on the role of repository for these strange quirks !! < bg >
