Hi all - I've encountered a rather hair pulling glitch with a WordPress 3.0-alpha test site in that it's not sending out any comment notifications whatsoever. The email address in both my "User Profile" (administrator) and under "Settings/General" is the same and associated with my web host ([email protected]) just like my other 2 sites are. My other two sites are running WP 2.9.2 and receive comment notifications without problem. (web host is Bluehost--never had a problem with this until WP 3.0-alpha builds).

I seem to recall that comment notifications were working initally and then just quit between one nightly build and another. Unfortunately, I was rather busy at the time and I don't remember which builds.

The kicker here is that I'm also running the "Subscribe to Comments" plugin on the test site and I'm receiving notifications of additional comments on a post I'm subscribed to with no problem.

In further troubleshooting, I even receive "New User" notifications not only to the email address assocciated with my "User Profile" and under "Settings/General" but also to the email address (a Gmail address) I used for the "new user" (the new user was myself of course using a different name.

Bottom line test results are:

-Comment notifications to site owner:  -No-

-"Subscribe to Comments" notifications sent to subscriber's email address: -Yes-

-New user notifications to site owner: -Yes-

-New user username and password sent to their email address: -Yes-

I have "Settings/Discussion" set to email me whenever "Anyone posts a comment". I've checked everything that's even remotely associated with the standard comment notifications and I can't find the problem and I can't figure out for the life of me why all the other email notifications related to the site are working fine EXCEPT the standard comment notifications. Nothing in the error logs either.

I'm running out of hair which is dangerous at my age as I have so little to begin with so any help would be very welcome.
