My email is being spammed by notifications every time someone responds to a post of mine. I tried to disable this in the preferences by selecting 'no' to email notifications, but it doesn't seem to have worked as I am still getting them.
Any ideas?

Hmm... so there is no way for me to stop getting spammed by all those emails then apart from some kind of email filter. I also don't want to remove them from the Watched Topics page as it's very useful in showing last posters, but I can't stand the spam either. I'll have to figure out this filter concept I suppose.

Dogmatism and skepticism are both, in a sense, absolute philosophies; one is certain of knowing, the other of not knowing. What philosophy should dissipate is certainty, whether of knowledge or ignorance.

Ah, alright, thank you, I wouldn't have found that. I had tried changing the Digests settings, hoping that would work, and it didn't.ThatGirlAgain wrote: General information:
