By email, that is...And I have that feature enabled in my profile. Is anyone else having a similar problem?
I'm also 'subscribed' to a couple of sub-forums here, and not getting updates from those either. I tried turning notifications off, then on again, doesn't work.
They are not landing in my spam folder either. I see the reply notifications in that little profile box, but they're not reaching my email inbox.
Helps?

I discovered that emails sent to a POP3 server go through, but emails using IMAP are blocked by the mail-server.

I guess I don't understand those acronyms.
Anyway, up until a out a week ago, I WAS getting email notifications of replies to my subscribed threads and sub-forums. Haven't changed my email. Still don't know what happened.

They are two different protocols that are used to receive email. Post Office Protocol v3 (POP3) is a store and forward service. Internet Message Access Protocol is newer and has more features.
My email account at gmx.com uses POP3, messages pass through. My email account at outlook.com uses IMAP, forum messages are blocked.
That said, I think what is going on is that your email provider has put "gator@texasbbqforum" on its spam list. Auto reply posts contain little text and multiple hyperlinks, giving the appearance of being SPAM to a SPAM filter. Might want to ask your email provider if they have blacklisted the forum.
