I hear what you're saying and I was about to express my dissatisfaction once again when... Boy do 'they' make it difficult. It's alright to use words like 'easy' in the marketing jargon but realistically this is the most uneasy forum I have ever had the pleasure of being involved in. Trying to find information is nigh on impossible. You're told to use the search system before posting in the 'we can fix it' forums but the search system is always indexing stuff. Fortunately, I fell on this page by luck: http://docs.zetaboards.com/acp/zetaboards_service/zbpremiumpcontrols?s=email%20subscription The important bit is summarised below: Enable email based subscription notifications ZetaBoards Premium offers notifications via email on several areas of your board. These include: New Personal Messages - If you're sent a new PM, you can be sent an email notifying you to the new unread message. New reply to topic - By subscribing to topics, users can opt in to receive an email when the topic receives a new reply. New topic in forum - By subscribing to forums on your board, users can opt in to receive an email when the forum has a new topic posted within it. The word that rings alarm bells is subscribing. You need to subcribe to a forum or a topic to get a reply. Aha! The next trick is working out how to *subscribe*. Go to the very bottom of the page (not easy, is it; anyone would think they didn't want you to find it!) and look on the rhs. You need to be in an actual forum or topic to see it, not on the opening page. "Subscribe to this forum". You might see "track this topic" also. I guess this is the same thing. Personally, I'm going to subscribe to all forums, but you can subscribe to as many or as few as you want. Hey, it's hardly busy here so I don't think I'll get too much mail. Well, not until Aircon comes on and blasts the board.. So to recap. It's a 2 stage process. 1. Click on Preferences and do as is already mentioned way above this post. 2. Subscribe as you go. Go on, give it a whirl. Please, no more And you never know, you might just get an email, unless there's another bloomin barrier in the way. PC Pom
