I'm not receiving forgotten password emails, reminders, or reminder verification emails. Why?
There are five possible reasons for emails not getting through.
  1. Incorrect Email Address. For reminders, check the recipient email address and verify that it is correct. If your account email address is incorrect, the forgotten password emails will not be delivered. Please contact us about this and we'll do all we can to help you regain access to your account.
  2. Email Inbox is Full. Many ISPs put a limit on the amount of email you can have in your inbox. This is typically the case when using the ISP's web based email program. Check with your ISP to determine if your inbox is full.
  3. Emails blocked by your email program. Check your anti-spam or junk mail settings in your email program. Some email programs have a white-list that will let you specify trusted emails. If your email program has junk mail or anti-spam features, specify all email coming from MoodTracker.com as not spam.
  4. Emails blocked by your ISP. Check with your ISP to find out if they are blocking our emails. If they are, ask them to white-list email coming from MoodTracker.com.
  5. Server Outage. Sometimes on rare occasions our services may become unavailable either because of periodic maintenance or a system error. Since our services are continuously monitored we are typically aware of outages and do everything we can to restore service.
