I’ve been posting and commenting and have not seen a single email from [discuss@gohugo.io](mailto:discuss@gohugo.io) today even in my Gmail spam folder.

I also never receive email replies. I recall an [earlier thread](https://discourse.gohugo.io/t/forum-annoyance-where-are-the-unread-posts/5424/2) where it was mentioned that ‘email recaps’ exist. But so far they’re only a legend for me. 🙂

@Jura, check your preferences at [https://discourse.gohugo.io/u/jura/preferences/emails](https://discourse.gohugo.io/u/jura/preferences/emails), that should have options you can set, see if those work.

@jnthnclrk did you happen to validate your account by any chance? I see your account is new and was manually switched to your membership level, so maybe that is the issue. I honestly can’t recall if Discourse sends an email verification link, but let’s work the problem before pulling in someone else. 🙂
