Has anyone tried this feature recently?
Is it working properly?

I tried Emailing myself the Hump day post and I get the forum confirmation window but no email is received.

Yes - it works. I checked and saw that your mail was blocked by AOL. It seems they do not like some of GB's mail address.

I didn't realize that AOL could block mail - lots of spam gets through.

Thanks for checking that, I'll notify them and see what they say.

I'll try sending it to my gmail account.

LadyLinda,

It did not go through due to another AOL disturbance.
Please check your PM for the error message.

If the error references "reverse DNS lookup," some ISPs block mail when the email address fails this.
