Disable email noification for people on your ignore list

[Chris Fitzgerald]

The title pretty much says it all. After a recent round of annoying behavior of various types, I find my ignore list growing larger, and I'm enjoying the benefits of not having to read posts by people whose posts routinely annoy me. However, since more than a few of the people on my ignore list are frequent posters, I still manage to be annoyed by them because I get email notifications whenever they post in a thread I've posted in. Is there a way to turn email notification of for IL members? If I've chosen not to read what they post, I certainly don't want to be reminded that they've just posted every 5 minutes.

Be fair Chris.....I only post every 10-12 minutes.

He's right, I've clocked it, fed Mark's "frequency of posts" average, "times most active" figures and "level of annoyance" score into a complex statistical program I wrote that, given the right amount of data, will graph.....you can't read this, can you?

Hi Chris - this shouldn't be happening. Are you absolutely sure that the notification is a result of an ignore-listed member, and not another poster in the thread?

Absolutely. The emails read:

Hello Chris Fitzgerald,

(A MEMBER OF YOUR IGNORE LIST) has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled -
Disable email noification for people on your ignore list - in the
Suggestion Box forum of TalkBass Forums.

etc...

Which is frutrating because while I know i want to ignore what that particular person said, others may have posted after that person as well. Add that to the fact that many of people on my ignore list are pretty active on a daily basis (sometimes it's the reason I ignore them), and it adds up to quite a few unwanted emails.
