I'm getting forum emails even though I am not subscribed

[Cheryl_Graham]

I susbscribe to messages that I post or that I have responded to, but suddenly, I'me getting every message that's posted to the Illustrator forum. Make it stop!

If I understand this thread correctly, there are two ways of stopping email notifications:

If I click on my "Mailing List" tab, I get this message:

Below is a list of forums that you are subscribed to. Click on an email address to add it to your address book.

I see the Illustrator forum address there, but I see no way to remove it.

Sorry, I cannot help you any further because I don't use subscriptions. I hope that someone who does reads your question soon.

Go to the Illustrator forum and in the Actions panel click the Unsubscribe link.

Jochem - That did it. I must have clicked it by mistake. THanks.

Cheryl,

Glad that you got it sorted out. As there are several ways that one can setup (intentionally, or not) e-mail notifications, it's sometimes tough to figure out exactly where, and how, one has to undo it. I've even doine an article in the Premiere forum on how to undo most of the notifications, but there are probably still ways/places that I missed. One poor user seemed to have subscribed to every Adobe forum, based on his descriptions and the sheer volume of the e-mail that he was getting. You are not the first, nor will you be the last.

As I only want notification on but a very few of even my own posts, it's easy for me - so long as I do not hit something by accident.

Good luck,

Hunt
