No. Nothing in Spam. In fact I've read the FAQ specifying common problems for not receiving newsletter. And after cross-checking all reasons I haven't found any applicable cause in my case.

Have you checked all your spam folders and blocked lists? Both yours and your ISPs?

The problem is probably due to the Daily Insider emails failing SPF checking when being received by email servers. My server luckily quarantines rather than refusing so I still get them. I sent an email about this last week but the problem remains.
Relevant headers are:

Something like what Yahoo DomainKey does. Isn't it?

Similar to DomainKeys. SPF is set up via a DNS entry for the outgoing mail server so that receiving mail servers can verify that the IP address from which the email is being sent is actually valid for the domain doing the sending. DomainKeys goes much further in that it can also verify that the email has not been altered in any way since being sent.

Yes I have checked my spam folders and blocked lists. Nothing there. As far as ISPs are concerned I access my gmail account from many places, so I dont think ISP is the issue. Can the issue be with g-mail servers. Should I try to change the articles e-mail account to some other e-mail provider.

Try a search on 'ruby' and see what you get (hint: 9000 replies from a prolific lounger

Better yet, provide an option to not search sigs.
I've searched for sig material more than once.

True. I second it. A good significant amount of space on the indexing catalog would be saved by it.

Not exactly a valid consideration when architecting a site. Storage is cheap.

Opera is clearly the best browser out there from many different perspectives, last time I tried it though CP was one of the only sites that had substantial problems with Opera.
If you're rebuilding anyway how about throwing a bone to Opera? It's free, it's technically superior, undisputably faster etc etc. All those good things that serious programmers have come to appreciate.
I also recommend that you ban the firefox browser due to the adblock feature which is no doubt costing CodeProject significant advertising revenue, or perhaps charge a subscription to FireFox users.

Throwing a bone to opera users, or blocking FireFox users?

Cool, I look forward to trying Opera with CP.

Wow! You know that it will cause a civil war in CP don't you?

All I know is if they are blocking ads then they are freeloaders and should be given the boot or the opportunity to pay a subscription.

I suppose you also scold little kids for changing the channel during commercials.

Yes, I subconsciously change channels or go for a snack or a glass of water or to the bathroom. I still end up watching a good many commercials of course.
And I think it's the same with CP. I doubt if advertisers pay a lot of money (if any at all) to Codeproject for ad-views. They probably pay a lot more per click or if a sale is made through a CP ad click. So if there are people who are never going to buy anything through a CP banner ad, it won't be a loss to Chris and Dave if they block all ads. In fact if enough people do it, it may save them some hosting bandwidth (which can be expensive).

 I've always known you hate Firefox, but this is insane.

It was half tongue in cheek, but obviously if Chris can't sell advertising there is no CodeProject.

Now FireFox users should ask for a ban on Opera. As Opera violates Internet standards by creating 4 connections to the web server instead of recommended 2. Opera users should compensate for the bandwidth they are eating up.;)
