<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The Bitcoin [[Protocol specification]] supports the broadcast of [[Alerts]]. In the past, an unofficial email relay was provided that rebroadcasts these [[block chain]] related alerts. To subscribe via email send an email to '''bitcoin-unofficial-alerts+subscribe@googlegroups.com''' [mailto:bitcoin-unofficial-alerts+subscribe@googlegroups.com] and you should receive an email asking you to verify your subscription.<br />
<br />
Alternatively, you can browse to the Google Group for the list [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/bitcoin-unofficial-alerts]. By default Google Groups does not send emails, so when you sign up you will likely want to choose to get notifications via email.<br />
<br />
==Verify alerts and obtain the latest status information==<br />
If you receive an alert you should '''immediately verify it is official''' by running "bitcoin-cli getinfo" (but see notes below), go to bitcoin.org [http://www.bitcoin.org] to obtain more details and background, or join the #bitcoin [[IRC channels]] on freenode to obtain the latest information.<br />
<br />
==Notes==<br />
*Alerts are broadcast to a specified range of Bitcoin versions.<br />
*The email relay uses a specially patched version of bitcoind that should report and therefore relay ''any'' alert broadcast for ''any'' version.<br />
*You will therefore have to verify whether or not the alert is actually relevant to your particular version of Bitcoin client.<br />
*Alerts are also independent of blocks or transactions, and have a defined time-to-live.<br />
*The email relay polls bitcoind every six minutes.<br />
