As an admin of 6 projects at FTDNA I have to agree with Elise. Most of the time their notification system has worked for me. Yes, there have been a few bumps in the road, but most of the time it has worked very well.

In my experience, notifications usually work properly. Result and match notifications deliberately don't go out the instant the results or match is posted -- they are queued up and sent at 8pm Central (Houston time) every night.
There are some things that notifications currently are not generated for -- such as completed individual SNP results and FF matches beyond Close & Immediate. I'm hoping FTDNA will start sending results notifications for individual SNP results soon and FF match notifications for Distant matches (3rd-4th cousins) -- requests have been submitted for both of these. I can understand why they aren't sending notifications for Speculative matches -- too many of those!

I hope the site has not been hacked. Has anyone gotten e-mails from FF matches that direct them to other web page or has anyone heard about something like that happening or is it just e-mails from FTDNA test?

ah ha!
So I saw this thread after I posted a new one on the same issue. Yes, I thought it weird to get the Y deep clade test when I'm a woman. Sheesh!
