Yes!  Just yesterday I got four registrations on ITU cases where we never got a Notice of Acceptance of the SOU.

Subject: [E-trademarks] Anyone else not receiving SOU acceptance emails?

 [EXTERNAL]
Over the past couple of months, when we have filed statements of use, we have never gotten an acceptance email, just the notice of registration.  Looking at TSDR, the “Notice of acceptance of statement of use e-mailed” shows up in the prosecution history, but there is no acceptance email in the documents tab, so TSDR is contradicting itself (and as noted, we never received the email).

Here’s what the prosecution history looks like:

But here’s what the docs tab says:
