Mail notification issue

Being from Germany and new here i have a little problem with the settings when i follow a thread. If i press the „Follow“ button and deactivate the mail notification i still get a mail for every single post.


So i went into my personal settings and tried to deactivate the mails. This action was denied with a little „oops“ when i wanted to save the changes. I went to the next option of a weekly mail notification, safed the settings and failed again. Whatever i try i get a mail for every single post of my „Follow“ threads.


It´s probably my fault but could someone put me into the right direction to avoid all these mails? And yes, i´ve read all the topics at the FAQ/Help section. :angel:


Otherwise i´m absolutely fascinated by this forum. For an outsider there could be no better place to learn about irish people, their thinking and normal living and it´s problems from the insider perspective. Thanks a lot for that.:D


Reason behind is that i am contemplating to come to Ireland when there is time to retire in a few years time. Don´t worry my pension will be more than sufficient to guarantee me a decent living in a little house, a little boat to cruise around and a few visits to the local pubs as well.


P.s. If someone is travelling through german papers or forums a little translator is helpful and quite a bit better than Google translate: deepl.com


Thanks in advance...:)
