Topic: another idea

Hi Pere,


I dont know how easy it would be or even if you would want to do this but.....


When I am going into my email I am getting hell of a lot of e mails, lol, yep, mostly from here.

I come in to check them and see that most  ( if any) are for me to read. Although I do like to read a lot of comments that I do not even join in with.


Would it be possible to have emails only when you get a reply from someone? i.e E mail says " there is a reply to your post" or something like that.

Would save everyones email inbox getting filled up so much.


I know I have the option not to receive the notifications, but they are good, apart from notifications for all the ones I have finished commenting on as they go off the subject that they started with or I have nothing else to contribute to that post.


Just a thought.

Re: another idea

not sure if I understand what you mean.


You should get mails if there are more replies to the thread you have posted.

Re: another idea

yeah I do get e amils to say a new post has bee nentered to a thread that I have entered something in,

what I was saying is get a notification by email if the reply is to me.

Like I said, I dont follow threads on and on for weeks, months or years ,lol.

So if I entered something and someone responded to MY message then I would get an e mail saying. If someone replied to someone elses but on the same thread I would like not to get an  email,lol


make sense yet?

does to me.

Re: another idea

yes, it makes sense. Unfortunately it is not very easy to implement. Especially since people often post a reply in the main thread that is a reply to a sub thread... if you understand what I mean..<img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_smile.gif" border=0 alt="Smile">
