No, because it from your description it doesn't seem what i want at all. I do not want to get emails for all the posts sent to all the places in the site. I do not want to answer to things via email I just want a sensible notification policy in which when someone answers to something i posted I get a notification by email. > > I think what you are describing is related to general email settings for > notifications.

Right now I am not well-informed > about the options here. It is broken, it seems watching is more intense than tracking (which my non English brain disagrees with) and watching is what i want. It also seems broken in which you have to set it tracking and then to watching again for it to actually work? (according to some random forum posts) So what i want is apparently "When I post in a topic, set that topic to Watching" Let's see if i ever post to discuss.k.o again it works as promised.
