I've been noticing sometimes I'll leave a Hubber a fan mail and it won't get approved. I know there are different explanations for this, like they haven't been on in awhile or maybe they don't want to approve it or want to think about it; but it seems more likely they've overlooked it. We have to go to our profile to see that someone has left us fan mail that we need to approve or deny; I think some people might overlook it, or might not go to their profile often. I'm wondering if it might be a good idea, though don't know if it's possible, to have notifications show up in our homepage feed or the notifications at the top.

The above link will lead you to your fanmail.
However, people have their notification settings under "email settings" under "profile", set to receive when they have fanmail.
The link below is the settings link.

I agree that this should be easier to find. Since it is easy to see how many comments you have on the home page, and notifications, this doesn't seem like a difficult request. There should be an easy way to see the number of fan mail. The accounts page seems like a good place for this.

I haven’t received any notifications via e-mail from hubpages for the past three days. Also no response to my query. My account settings are correct. So what could be the problem?

I would like to see an indication on the Home Page (I use the standard) if someone leaves fan mail (or joins as a follower), a notification similar to comments left would be nice. You typically do not see this, or at least I don’t, until you open the fan mail box in “my account” or happen to see it...

Why am I NOT getting e-mail notifications>I am following a LOT of hubbers and I should be getting e-mail notifications when any are active. I am not even getting notified when I get comments on my hubs. I am not being notified of Forums or Questins. I am concerned.

Hey everyone,If you look at the HubPages homepage while you’re signed in, you’ll notice quite a change: we’ve moved to a Feed-centric layout (you’ll also notice that the Feed is no longer visible in the header), and made some simplifications to the interface. Kudos to Fawntia who built this great...

With the recent restrictions placed on links within the new format profile, it seems incongruous (to me) that Hubbers are able to include an active link back to their own profile, within fan mail sent to others.I know it's easy enough to deny the comment, but I don't think people necessarily...
