Enable Daily Email Notifications for Threads - Joris

  • Thread starter JorisL
  • Start date
In summary, the previous version had a daily digest option for following threads, but it is no longer available in the new version. The only options now are either instant email notifications or no notifications at all. However, there is a way to turn off email notifications completely in the account preferences.

So...
I'm having a little issue here.

In the previous version I would get a daily digest for each thread I'm following. (if I'm not mistaken)
In this version I can't seem to find this option any longer. Meaning I get emails as soon as a new reply is made.

I even turned off the receive email notifications for now.

Any way this can return? (or maybe it's hidden?)

Hi Joris, I'm afraid the daily digest it no longer any option. It's either no email notification or instant.

Is there a way to completely turn off email notifications? I can turn them off for individual threads, but I can't find an option to turn them off in general.
