: Subscriptions to Threads? No!

Somehow, I keep ending up with subscriptions to threads, which sends email notification every time somebody posts anything here. I was subscribed to 50 odd threads, without knowing how it happened. Way buried down, I found a way to manually delete each one, and now I am again re-suscribed to at least some.

I don't want any! How do I stop this from happening?

I have discovered the secret.

The option that sends out notifications is NOT under "Subscribed Threads". It is under a different heading, and then under "Edit Options", and quite a ways down the list of options at that.

I have the opposite problem. If I post i a thread, I want to be notified if someone replies. I have the default set to subscribe, and I have verified that I am subscribed to threads using the "Thread Tools" drop down, but I never receive any email about replies.

edit: hopefully I remember to check this thread, as I won't get the notification :)

PM me your active email address, and I'll make sure the settings are correct.

Right now, your account status is set to "Awaiting Email Confirmation". You have have tried to reset your password or something.

Anyway, PM me your current, in use email address and I'll check settings.
