Subscription emails messed up?

I have been experiencing this issue for the past few months. I was wondering whether anybody else has had the same problems.

What happens is the following. I am subscribed to certain threads. My personal option is set to immediate email notification. This means that I get an immediate email whenever a new post is made to those threads. For the past 5+ years, this has worked as it should, no problems there. Recently, however, the subscription emails are not consistently sent when a new post is made to a thread. Instead, I get an email only after a next post, but the email sent is for the previous one. Let me explain:

1) somebody posts something (Post 1)
2) I don't get a subscription email
3) I visit OPF and read the thread. This resets the subscription email trigger so that I get an email when a future post is made to this thread.
4) Time passes, another post is made to the same thread (Post 2).
5) I get an instant email from OPF subscription system, but the email contains the text of the Post 1.
6) This is repeated intermittently. It does not always happen like that, sometimes I get timely and correct emails too.

Anybody else having similar problems?
