How To Remove EMail Notification ...

[bluebaronbob]

i am subscribed to the appropriate forum, and am able to determine the existance of an appropriate download when one is present.

i was pleased to find that i could receive email notification of new postings in my subscribed forum, and i enabled this feature.

the earliest i have received email notification is 26 hours after i have manually located and downloaded the subject of the notification. email notification for me is useless, and i would like to turn this feature off (save bandwidth) but i cannot find the place to do so.

please point me in the right direction.

go to thread tools,make sure you have instant notification instead of daily notification selected.

Go to user cp at top of your screen.

thanks wildstik for quick response. i go to my forum, there is no 'thread tools' but there is 'forum tools'. i select 'subscribe'. there are three options; no email, daily email, weekly email. it doesn't indicate what i have selected but my guess is daily. thanks again.

thanks clearview for quick response. i've been through each option under 'user cp' several times without finding any thing that looks appropriate. if i've missed it don't hesitate to let me know, for i'm an old diabetic with failing eyesight and do not see often. thanks again.

there seems to be some confusion about my problem. i've checked my original posting and line 2 says 'i was pleased to find that i could receive email notification of new postings in my subscribed forum, and i enabled this feature.'. this is a 'subscribed forum' notification, not a 'thread' notification. (i know i am subscribed to a forum because i get email notifications of new postings; but i cannot find a list of forums that i am subscribed to anywhere. i'd insert one of these icons if 1) i knew how and 2) there was one there showing me all wet.) thanks for the help.

thanks damien666; what a nick. apparently 'default thread subscription mode' is for 'new' subscriptions. mine is set for 'no email...', yet i still get them. thanks again.

edited... as far as i can tell 'view subscription' only shows subscribed 'threads', not 'forums'. how in the heck did you reply to my post so quickly?
