Haha, I just got an email with my own above post in which I included @myname. So apparently if somebody includes your name with an @ symbol before it, you also get it by mail, even though you are not subscribed to the topic.

Do I get an email?

Clay I got an email, and read the same post on the Forum.  I tried to recreate Eric’s situation earlier.  I drafted and email included “@March” but did not submit…I did not get the email or see the post.  Eric stated he did this same thing.  I got his email but never saw the post.

Thanks Marc. I haven’t seen an email from my test.

Clay, maybe a silly question, did you check, “Notify me of follow-up replies via email” ?

Also maybe it has something to do with Mark76 and I being Moderators?

I had this option off, Marc (I called it “not subscribed”), but I got the email anyway. If I have it on, I get an email every time anyone posts in ghe topic.

I didn’t have it checked so I wouldn’t normally get notified, but I was hoping that by tagging myself, I would be notified. I’ll have to check my spam folder but I didn’t get anything in my inbox.

Eric PM’d me, he said he hit “edit” then blanked it out.

@developer (ChrisB) wondering if this will trigger an email to you.

I received an email – that’s a cool feature.

Working to make knife.wickededgeusa.com a great forum!

@wickededge Here’s another test of the email notification feature, to see if you receive an email. PS, I’m sending this from my personal forum profile, just to make sure the feature works for non-admins.

I guess Eric posted his first, (i.e., submitted it), causing it to email me, then immediately edited it then blanked it out, same as essentially deleted it?
