[rhn-users] notifications from RHN?

[Jensen, John T]

Daryl - a related question - automatic updates haven't been working for some time, either.  Is this a known problem?

This feature of RHN hosted has not been working for the past few months.
You may have noticed the delunge of emails a few weeks back when RHN
emails finally came for RedHat 4.7 and 5.2 .  Since then, they have been
silent for me as well.

My hope is that the outage scheduled for next week will fix this and other
bugs related to scheduling and processing of errata.
