   This weekend I had a give away on my blog hop, with anyone who is a commenter and follower will be entered into the give away. There were complaints that the participant never got the confirmation email, to be subscribed. She came back to my blog and saw that I had a new post, and that did not show up on her inbox. I am wondering how many subscribers I lost this weekend due to this. Can this issue be fixed, is this a known issue? i couldn't find it in the support site.

   There are still several invitation that are unconfirmed. Visit this page and click on the "resend" link behind their e-mail address.

   Followers can edit their own follower settings on this page in which they can choose their own notification method.

   no, it isn't in the invitation it is the people who are subscribing by email straight from my blog. Those confirmations were invites. It didn't include the blogger who used the "sign me up" button.

   Okay, when someone signs up via email, they'll need to confirm their subscription. Can you ask these users to make sure they confirmed their subscription to your blog?

   If they're still having trouble, would you be able to send us some of emails of those visitors? You can send that information privately here. Please reference this post in your email.
