    For some reason I seem to be getting a huge amount of notification emails from AFF - this has been clogging up my inbox therefore AFF emails are going to the junk folder.

    Anyway I tried to find the options/settings page on here that controls the email notifications so I could switch off, but can't for the life of me find where to do this.

    Any advice would be great...

    Cheers

    I also have no idea how to turn this off but I have my AFF account linked to an email I exclusively use for junk, spam and internet shopping that Shrek is oblivious to

    You can change email notifications from PM’s here:

    http://www.australianfrequentflyer.c...do=editoptions

    But I’m guessing you have subscriptions to threads that are selected to send to your inbox, instead of just read on the web. You can change them here:

    Mine are all set to "through my control panel only".

    I have never subscribed to any threads on forums. I would be deleting emails from my inbox all day.

    As soon as I reply, I am automatically subscribed. When the email arrives, there is a hyperlink in the email to unsubscribe which I choose if I no longer wish to partake in that thread

    Re: Email notifications

    OK... so I'm officially annoyed that I can't seem to get this right.

    As a big user of Quick Links > Subscribed Threads, I have found that although the emails have stopped, so have the "threads" appearing in this "Subscribed Threads" section. This therefore means that I need to trawl through the "New Posts" pages hunting for green arrows that indicate that i've contributed to that thread.

    So - can someone walk me through the instructions to:

    - ensure that I do not receive emails for subscribed threads
    - ensure that I can still see my subscribed threads in the "Subscribed Threads" menu

    Cheers
