Howard, thanks so much! I promise to post the results, whether I get multiples or just one from now on.
I've been having this problem for about 3-4 weeks now and hoped it would shake itself out.
I subscribe to several threads and I really love getting the e-mail updates. However, I get from 2-6 of the same e-mail each time a thread updates. It doesn't appear to be a problem with my Yahoo! mail because no other services I subscribe to "hiccup" and cause multiples. I haven't seen anyone else post about it, though.
Thank you, Captain Obvious. I WANT TO get e-mail notifications of certain threads. I SIGNED UP FOR e-mail notifications of certain threads. Why would I want to turn that OFF?Or you could just go into your personal settings and change it so you do not get any notifications via email.
No, it is not a browser issue. As Howard said above, it's a quirk of the board software.I recieve the same thing, is it a browser issue?

I experience a similar - though not as severe - problem. I'm subscribed to a bunch of threads. Each day I usually receive more than one email for at least a few of the updated threads. I rarely get more than three email responses for any given thread on any given day.
This isn't a big deal for me personally. I'm concerned because it might be a burden on the board's resources. Those extra emails could add up to a bunch of wasted bandwidth.
On the other hand, I pretty much only get one notification per PM when I get them.

I'd rather get too many notifications than none at all, but I'm grateful that Howard is working on it. Thanks, buddy. :blinking:
