So back in 2013, all of a sudden I stopped receiving email notifications from the forum, without me ever checking the box in my profile to not notify me anymore and with the correct email address filled in. I forgot about it for years until a couple of months ago I started getting new notifications again, flooding my inbox. I'm not interested in receiving them anymore so I tried to actually change the settings in my profile after all but it's not working! I keep getting lots of emails from threads I'm not even following anymore. Can anyone help to stop this?

did you re-check that all topics are really unsubscribed?
Those basic forum settings are administrated by M@X, for what I know ...

Embarrassed Okay, so I literally just clicked that 'Subscriptions' tab for the first time ever, I never knew it worked that way... Still doesn't explain why I didn't get any notifications for years though. Anyway, I guess I'll remove those subscriptions after I've gone through the nostalgia trip of reading back all those old threads!

I was surprised in the same way when suddenly receiving notifications again.

For what I know, M@X stopped this facility once due to some overload problems on the server
though now, with lesser forum activity, and probably some updates concerning software and/or performance, this might not have a huge impact anymore ...

Okay, so I just tried to remove the subscriptions but they just don't disappear... I selected some of them and clicked 'unsubscribe' and they were still there, and it did the same thing when I selected all. I also just got another notification email so it definitely hasn't worked. Any help?

We cannot understand why this server cannot work just as we've set the options ... some bugs here methinks.
