Can players receive email notifications when a server blog post or clan news is posted?

Many thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion regarding clan news. Server blogs already notify users if they have favorited the server.
I am retired from GameTracker after 11 years and will not be responsive for support requests.

Thank you for the reply.

Regarding current server blog notifications, is that via email or PM?

Is there any reasons emails would not be being received if not in users spam folder?

As a suggestion, could you allow server owners to specify their own email server? Would take the load off your servers if their is a delay.

Actually, it must have been changed in a pretty recent update to only send to the server owner. I just tested it and that is currently the case.

A centralised system to contact players regarding server updates, news etc would be very beneficial.

Also, email alerts for server owners when a trigger limit of players is reached etc.

Many thanks for your help.
