I had the same problem, but in my case it was because I had switched logins. I usually post under a user name, but at some point I switched to logging in as the site admin. The site admin didn’t have an email address in his profile, so emails weren’t being sent. I corrected this and now the comment emails are working again.
I’m having the same problem now. I had about a week ago upgraded to WP 1.5.2 and didn’t have any problems with it. Then my webhost upgraded to PHP 4.4.1 and I noticed that I was no longer getting email notifications of new comments. The feature is enabled under options was from December 1, which is exactly the day my webhost upgraded PHP. is there any connection or am i just paranoid?
DIddo I had the same problem. But my host dosent allow the mail() function for some reason…
