Was the EGM announced here, or to members via CiviCRM?
Members entitled to vote should have received an email notice of EGM individually. As a member, I received an email from fundraising@wikimedia.org.uk on 20 March with the subject "Katie - please vote in our Extraordinary General Meeting".

FWIW, I got a renewal reminder on 15/3, renewed the same day, but didn't get an email about the EGM on the 20th.

Thanks. Yes, I have that email. I was not looking for an email from "fundraising@wikimedia.org.uk"....
Probably makes more sense to have an email from/sender such as "membership@wikimedia.org.uk"...

Andrew, could you check your spam folder please? I've just checked, and the email was definitely sent to you on the 20th (to your 'generalist' address).

Indeed, the email should have come from that address, but was accidentally sent from the fundraising address (which is easy to do accidentally from the civicrm interface). Future emails should be coming from the membership@ address.
Thanks, Mike

Many thanks. In that case a reminder from that (corrected) from/sender email address could be sent?

That is why the from/sender field is so important!!! Many addresses are whitelisted in the MTA system I use, so sending from a different address can lead to confusion. I also use from,cc,bcc etc to sort emails in my MUA.

Checked, no luck. One of those anomalies, I guess!
Andrew.
