I have a couple members mentioning they are getting e mails each time someone replies to a post.

here are their comments:

Quote:I have noticed that these forums will send out repeated email notifications to threads that you are watching but have not yet viewed if your are reading other posts on the forum.

Basicly stating, the forum is only suppose to send an email to you when someone replies to a thread you are watching and should send no more until you visit that thread. This is not that case here.

Quote:Other sites have it so that it tells you if there are any posts since you last checked that particular thread .. but not tell you when EACH person posts EACH and EVERY time .. annoying

Any suggestions?

Is there a way to 'fix' this? or is is there nothing to fix? Could it be something checked in user or admin cp?
Tell them to note what it says at the bottom of the email, just before the "Thank you" it says:
Quote:There may also be other new threads and replies but you will not receive anymore notifications until you visit the board again.
And since they are browsing the forums, they will get new emails every time a new post is made.

Not a huge issue if they use gmail, they just get put into one email. Big Grin
