E-mail notifications - wasted space

I think it's ridiculous that email notifications are ON by default for everything. to turn them off click your name, then go to the tabs mailing lists and turn everything off and email notifications and delete everything there (or the ones you want to un-subscribe to).

for each thread you visit and are interested in, you can select the "Recieve an email notification" link in the action pane to the right of the posts in the thread.

man it's worse than spam, especially if you post in just a couple threads that have more than 1 or 2 replies. i had to delete hundreds of emails last night that piled up over a couple of hours before i realized you had to turn that off. AND i had to filter out my legit emails from the forum spam.

john c & forum team, you really should consider making email notifications an OPT IN thing rather than OPT OUT.
