Dan, you precisely detected the problem: I am also not entirely sure where I am right now about this case.
I think it would make sense if someone took a look at the problem. To summarize:
- After applying the fix from Robin I get copies of tell-friend-mails (addressed to my webmaster-address).
- When I recommend a page to myself I only get ONE mail - to the recipient entered in the “to”-field. I never get the notification-mail . I tried every configuration (different mailaddresses, logged in, logged out ...), checked my spam-folders etc.
Thanks!
