Attention Adobe Administrator....I am getting flooded with emails from David Powers on all kinds of subjects?

David Powers says he cannot do anything about it? So maybe Adobe wizards can?  See attachment for proof

of emails.

    Are these relative to posts on the Adobe forum, or has this person managed to grab your e-dress, and is using that for nefarious purposes. If they are to notify you of either your replies being replied to, or your posts being replies to, then maybe this ARTICLE will be of use.

    If it's the latter, then you might want to take it up with David Powers' ISP/POP provider, as it appears that David Powers isn't interested in addressing the issue.

    Good luck,

    Hunt

    PS - I do have my e-dress in my profile (at least I did prior to the recent Jive update), and only put in a cryptic reference to it, when posting into the fora.

    This relates to the thread at http://forums.adobe.com/message/2486333#2486333  It's not that David isn't interested, just he can't do anything more then he already has suggested.

    Well, it looks like in my attempt to help someone turn off all possible e-mails from the forum, when someone at Adobe checked my subscriptions, they managed to turn on full e-mail notification for all fora, that I post to, even for threads that I have never seen. Nice going!

    Now I know how the OP feels. In my case, the e-mails are coming every time that anyone responds to almost any thread in the Premiere, Premiere Elements, of Encore.

    Not sure how this has happened, and I have checked in all locations to make sure that all e-mail notifications are OFF, and they are, yet the e-mails still are coming. Guess that this proves that no good deed goes unpunished.

    I can't say what actually happened, but I would suspect that if John messed up by reading too quickly or whatever when he came in here (at my suggestion) while he was on holiday, he probably won't bother to do so again... especially if people are going to get all negative about what is no doubt a mistake, if, in fact, it was something he did.

    Since I gave him a link to the OP's profile in the backroom, the account that he looked at was in all likelihood the correct one, so I really don't know what might be affecting Hunt's subscriptions now. My initial assumption, before other subscription questions came up, was that he just clicked on the last post in the topic to reply.

    Hunt, I would think you should be able to find and turn off subscriptions... if not, send JC a PM... he'll probably find it before he gets back to work officially Tuesday, if not Monday.
