Where Do I Go to Access My Profile - E-Mails Are Killing Me?

Where Do I Go to Access My Profile?

I have got to turn OFF E-Mail notifications, as I have gotten over 3,000 since the "new & improved Jive" went live.

I know that it's just hidden, on say page 300 somewhere (like posting this question!), but I cannot find it.

TIA,

Hunt

    Welcome back... and that will teach you to be away for more than a few seconds

    The other thing you are going to find is that Jive 7 is now a "social networking" site, so EVERY TIME you post a new message, or reply in an existing message thread, you are going to have to IMMEDIATELY click the FOLLOW link at the upper right, and select the option to STOP FOLLOWING... or your inbox will fill up with every new response

    So far, there is no way to globally turn the FOLLOW option off (that social networking orientation) AND I have found that reply messages I posted before the Jive7 switch are also generating automatic FOLLOW commands so I have to go back to each individual message and click to STOP FOLLOWING

    Of course, that extra work is offset by BLAZING SPEED of the new forum software... are we having fun yet?

    John T.,

    Welcome back... and that will teach you to be away for more than a few seconds

    Yes, I feel that I have been abducted by aliens, and dropped onto a landscape, which is unfamiliar to me - everything up is really down, and everything down is really up. Here I thought that I would just sit out the transition, and pick right up, where I left off, but was very wrong. I am just glad that my InBox is digital, and not analog, as it would have crushed my desk under the weight of all those e-mails!

    Thanks,

    Hunt

    If the aliens have 4 arms, and you are introduced to a beautiful 'human' princess... check your name tag to see if it says John Carter

    It's hidden in your profile (access on the top black bar). The dropdown list has an ítem called Preferences. That's where the link in adobe-admin's message takes you.

    John C.,

    Thank you, as always. That link was exactly what I was looking for, but could not find.

    Much appreciated,

    Hunt
