Setting up hotmail "Safe List"...

Thanks to those who saw my post as something beyond verbal diarrhea... Yes, I too prefer a verbose post as opposed to one that is all too brief and leaves the reader asking 1,001 questions to the original poster.

Also, thanks for the replies to generate the "email notification reply" email. :)
 
sumthin fishy: Actually, there are different settings... if you want "Instant Email Notification," it only sends you one notification until you read the thread... so person #1 replies at 12:00, #2 at 14:00, and #3 at 17:00, and you don't visit the topic until 18:00, you only receive the one email from 12:00. There is also an option to receive a once-a-day email summarizing new posts in topics you are watching... and one like that but on a week-by-week basis... and there are even more options but I don't remember them all.

So wait, if I understand correctly, everytime someone responds to this, you get a notification, via e-mail?

If I post to a thread at say 07:00... then someone replies at 08:00, another at 09:00, and another at 10:00, but I do not view the thread again until 12:00, I will only receive ONE notification email, likely sent just after 08:00.

Now, if someone else replies at 14:00, I would then receive ANOTHER notification sent to me at about 14:01 or so, saying "new replies since you last visited topic."

Hopefully that clears things up!?
