I've sent several emails to my Facebook email address just for shits and giggles. I've never gotten a single one to go through.

You probably already know this but just to confirm, emails dont show up in messages. Instead they go to 'other' in messages, which no one checks anyways.

That's not consistent w/ my testing:

- email from address associated w/ facebook account goes directly to facebook messages

- email from address not associated w/ facebook account does not arrive, in neither messages nor 'other'

Thanks. I didn't know that and wondered where they went.

How long have you waited? I heard of emails to Facebook taking as much of half an hour to arrive.

Days. Not in messages, other, or anywhere.
