Eden,

Can you confirm what you mean by

each forum needs to be individually set, and reset.

I'm not sure what it is that I'd set & reset. I think I have updated my display name in my two accounts, and set the notifications etc in both, but I don't remember anything forum specific.

regards

Philip

No, this has to do with receiving emails whenever someone posts to a particular thread or forum. However, there doesn't appear to be a way to subscribe to the entire Mathcad community in one fell swoop, i.e., there is no "Receive email notifications" option for http://communities.ptc.com/community/mathcad as a whole.

So, another annoyance with the email notifications is that even though you've set the specific forum to notify, each individual thread display has no clue that you're already set for notification. If you're forgetful, you might just waste your time setting each individual thread to notify.

Seems to me that if the forum is already set for notification, then the thread display should show "email notification "On" from forum setting" rather than playing dumb.

Another question for Dan, can this be done?
