Why am I still receiving email notifications after deactivating email options?

[JBA]

I do not want email notifications, so I deactivated all email options; but, I am still getting email notifications. At the same time, I do like getting the Push notifications on my web browser so I still have those activated. Is that the reason I am still getting email notifications?

Are the mail notifications from old threads?

I sometimes get email notifications from threads that I followed before changing my preferences.

If so, you can fix that by first Unwatching/Unsubscribing from the thread, and then Watch/Subscribe with the new option selected. That's how I turned off e-mail notifications in the old threads that I'd subscribed to.

You can also manage notifications on your watched thread page: https://www.physicsforums.com/watched/threads?unread=0

That is what I needed. Thanks
