1. Go to account Profile page 2. From right column, select 'Change Email Address' 3. Change email to a fake or alternate email address and click 'Save Updates' 4. Change email back to your regular email address and click 'Save Updates' 5. Then visit your 'Email Notifications' page to make sure the subscription settings are as you want The notifications are set up the way they've always been. They are not showing up in my spam folder either. I use gmail I looked it and there is a tracking cookie for wetpaint in my list of cookies. My gmail account preferences have not change either. I've been manually refreshing the site to find the updates. This has been going on almost three weeks now.
