Problem with EMAIL notification under certain scenarios
I have been checking various scenarios to check E-mails are received where expected within the forum and have found some issues.
for example;
when someone comments on my status an e-mail is received, which is correct
when someone writes a comment on a discussion that i have booked marked an e-mail is received, which is also correct...Im sure there are other methods where e-mails are/should be received.
The problem is that I noticed that if my user registration is set to approval. I.E A user requests to become a member, I DO NOT receive an E-mail as a result i noticed I had 2 users on my forum waiting for approval. I check my E-mail daily but don't always log onto my forum (I also checked junk inbox)
When new members join I write a quick personal message. On one of these messaages the person commented back, but no E-mail is received. I would expect to receive an e-mail....under my preferences I have checked to receive emails for ALL notifications.
Have i missed something.
As the forum owner, administrator I want to receive E-mails when;
someone new joins, comments on any of my status, contributes to a discussion I have booked marked, creates a new discussion (would be nice)

[How to move the position of content within CSS]
.Email {
display:none;
}
Would that work?

But when checking the actual forum post it said

dl dd span.Email a {
font-size: 8px;
}
Does that work? play with the font size, that class should select the email anchor tag in the profile.

I can only assume ddumont edited his post? But you don’t receive an e-mail to say its been edited. It actually turns out the original post received by e-mail fixed my problem – but this wasn’t shown on the forum for others to see. The fix to remove E-mail from being displayed in users profiles is to add the following to customer and style.css (I added to both as I wasn't sure which one to update)
.Email {
display:none;
}
IS this correct....should e-mails be received when a comment is edited?
I have also noticed hyphy commented on another post;

No e-mail was received...strange
