How to receive email notification of replies
« Thread Started on Apr 11, 2010, 12:22am »

Email notifications are controlled by the Bookmarks system. At the top and bottom of each thread topic, you'll see a "Bookmark" icon. Click it, and you'll be notified of each new reply in the thread.

To control what kind of notification you get, go to Profile>Bookmarks>ManageBookmarks

Using the bookmarks system, you will be able to bookmark different threads and have quick access to them from your profile screen. For each bookmark, you can specify whether you would like to receive a PM, an email, or receive no notification when a new post is made in the thread that is bookmarked.

You will only receive notification that a thread has been updated one time until you view the thread again. This means that if 10 people post before you get back to a thread, you still only get notified once. Once you view the thread, you may then receive notifications again.

An option will be available to set what your default notification action should be for threads you bookmark. For example, you can set your default action to be to PM you. Then any time you bookmark a thread in the future, it will automatically set that bookmark to notify you by PM of any updates.

*Please keep in mind you MUST set the default to "email" from your bookmarks first before you will receive ANY notifications at all.*

To receive notifications in regards to private messages....

Click on your private messages at the top where it says your name, you have x messages, x are new.

There will be a button that says PREFERENCES. From there you can set the default to receive notifications via email.

May the road gangs never meet you. May the wind be fallout-free. May the sun shine through the ashes, hot rain not fall on thee. And until we meet again, may no one hold your flesh in the palm of their hand.

Cool, I was able to figure it out after a failed first attempt. I got my first email today.

The call to arms sounds across the land
heed its call
arm yourselves for times to come
and pray that it will be short

You can not invade mainland America. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.
