Multiple Newsletters

[Maybole]

I am pleased to read the daily newsletters. However I am receiving several copies of the same one every day. Two copies of today's came in at 1535 and two more  of the same at 1537. One only please.

Ditto for me...receiving two newsletters with the same date/time stamp....seems to have started a few weeks ago when TVF had to move to a new domain/server provider.   Haven't said anything until now hoping the multiple deliveries was a glitch/fix itself....but it's been going on for about two weeks now.

Maybe so....one some days I was getting duplicate/identical newsletters in the morning and afternoon.  Like this morning I got sent the newsletter twice with the same date/time stamp.

Today, I have got 4 of the same Newsletter, at 0322,0322,0324,and 0324. It is a recurrent problem but I would rather have several copies then none at all

On Wednesday and days before I was getting multiple copies like shown above.  But yesterday/Thursday I didn't get multiple copies...just one copy like it's suppose to work...thought maybe TVF had fixed this glitch.   But this afternoon/Friday I'm back to getting multiple copies with the exact same date/time....see below.  TVF sure is killing a lot of internet trees.

I do not subscribe to the Newsletter, but please, what does it have which I cannot view on this normal website.

It gives you 2 of the top stories , about 10 of the featured forum threads and about 30 latest news threads, oh and a few ads for good measure.

So while it doesn’t give you anything you can’t find on the forum itself it does give you instant access to a range of the most important and interesting topics currently available ( in the newsletter News Editors eyes at least ).

 

In respect to duplicate newsletters, it started for me about 2 weeks ago and I get the identical repeat version, at exactly the same time,  probably every other day.

The good thing about the newsletter is it does a fair job of listing popular/important threads across many  topic areas of TVF.  This way a person don't have to scan through all the the topic areas for those truly important topics....or don't even need to logon daily to look for important/late breaking topics especially in the Visa/Extension area or just news that affects all expats.  Heck, there are days that unless the topic/news is listed on the newsletter then it may not be worth even logging onto TVF other than to kill some time.  It can be a time saver.
