If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!
What notices? I've posted enough topics and messages that if I were to select the 'Notify me when a reply is posted' or 'Always notify me of replies' options, I'd receive a steady stream of emails. Try several hundred per day. I also disabled the PM notification option since I actively employ the services of the ToO postal office. Gotta love the pop-ups.

Delete them--my mail's majorly slow and I get on almost everyday, so I usually read the PM before I get the notice... Although I haven't subscribed to any topics since I first posted here.
I left it on at first, and I couldn't figure out why I had so many meddages in my junk mail folder. It was all ToO stuff. So I went back and turned all but the pm off. I don't get enough to cause problems

Me too. I made that mistake when I first registered at the TH, and quickly found this to be a bad idea. I have the little pop up thingy here, but that's it.
I forgot to turn the e-mail notification thing off when I first registered here, and then I couldn't believe that I had so many e-mails when I checked my account the next day! Then I realized my mistake. I turned it off then - it would be way too annoying otherwise!
I know, me too! I had about 50 emails! I have them all off except the PM one. But my pop-up blocker stops it so I know when I hear a little 'click', it means I have a PM!

Same here, Trent.

I'm not the type of guy that always wonders if someone replied to me; and who it could be...though when I first joined the PM many years back, I was somewhat overly obsessed to know what people thought of every post I made.

Never catch me doing that now, however. Nope.

I think your post is just...
You obviously didn't want to know.
I don't use the little pop-up feature for PM's... call me crazy but I prefer not to use it. I just have to keep my eye on the bottom of the screen and see if that little number down there is showing.
