Email me when I am quoted, replied to, my @username is mentioned, or when there is new activity in my watched categories, tags or topics
- Always - you will receive an email every time you get a message
- Only when away - after 10 mins the site will email you a notification of a response or a post
- Never - turned off, no emails received
Include previous replies at the bottom of emails
- This just shows previous replies to the posts in the email so you can keep a track on what was quoted, written etc.
Email me when a policy needs my review
This is a default setting of never as its not required or used on this site.
So after setting up the email preferences you go onto the site and browse a few topics. Each topic has its own setting at the bottom so you can either :~
-
Watch and get all notifications and a count
-
Tracking - and get a count of replies
-
Normal - no counts or notifications only if you are mentioned
- Muted - nothing,nadda zip…
These settings work in each topic along with emails so if you have emails set to always when quoted, and you have watching on the you should receive an email for every reply quote etc…
To quickly find unread or counts on several topics you follow, simply click on the ETN logo top left and that will take you to your landing page…
