Changing your email settings

Ngairi by Ngairi Talking Back(July 2007) (rank 49th)

Question:

Email

How can I stop the emails coming through to my email address? I just have too many emails and this just adds to it.  I check my watch list through the day and don't really need that on my email.  I also check my Minti Mail and it also comes through to my email.  Is there any way to stop this from happening or is it all just part of it?

Answer:

On the left hand side of your homepage is your list of options for you Minti Account. Select Watchlist. It will come up with headings at the top of the page   . Select configure watchlist. This will bring up a new page.

 Right at the bottom of the page, there is a selection there that asks whether you want to have email alerts. Select off.

Email Options

Email unread Watch List   Daily   Weekly   Off

Here you may also select which articles, blogs etc you don't want to watch any more.

 With your mailbox, you do the same thing. When you go to your minti mailbox, at the top right hand side is a button for settings.

 Go there and at the end of the page it asks whether you want to be notified in your external mailbox of any happenings. You can select which you want to be notified of.

Receive Newsletter: Yes No           You can choose to receive the Minti newsletters.           Receive friend requests: Yes No           You can receive an email alert when someone requests to be your friend.           Receive new Advice alerts: Yes No           You can receive an email when a friend publishes an Advice article.           Send MintiMail to the registered email address? Yes No           You can unsubscribe at any time from all email alerts. You will not receive any emails from Minti if you select no.      

In the last box select no to have your mail stopped.

Hope this helps you. Leisa

Re: No more emails

Umm... are you saying that you don't want the author of the article to send you emails? Or are you saying that you want to turn your mail settings to off - which you can do by following the instructions the author of this article has typed....?

Re: Changing your email settings
its a very slow process to go into your watchlist and unwatch all the things you dont want .. its taken me an hour so far and im still not finished ,, maybe someone could email clay etc,, and he maybe in the future will be able to make a box chect next to all the ones you dont want to hear from etc ,, that would make the process alot faster instead of un checking them one by one ,,

I also forgot to add that clearing out your watch list makes the pages come up faster ,, mine with this used to be slow for a page to load untill i started to clear it out ,, thats one thing i do know lol
