Re: Incorrect URL in emailed alerts.

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Yes this is an known problem. Alerts are sent using the address that was
used to access the web site when the alerts were created.

The only "fix" *I* know about is to re-create them when using today's
address.

Maybe someone else has something better to offer ?
