Warning about email stability in Secondlife
IMPORTANT! Secondlife email alerts is usually fairly stable, however due to some long-term bugs in the core server systems of Secondlife itself, sometimes email reports may stop working. Specially if the SIM is heavy loaded with lots of scripts and/or laggy.
If you experience problems with email alerts, you can usually fix this pretty easy by asking for a reboot of the SIM from the SIM owner.
However, since this is a problem that has been around for many years, do not rely on email-alerts of very important information
Using iPhone alerts or Android alerts is usually more reliable since it does not rely on the old email server system integrated in Secondlife. iPhone and Android alerts uses pure and simple HTTP communication and so far it has proven to be a incredible stable and rarely ever fails at all. The HTTP communication seems to work stable even in heavy lagged areas.
The security system also uses a internal log-storage system so you can always review what’s happened since last time you were online by printing the internal logs when you have logged into Secondlife.
