Earlier I was getting these but since I chat a lot so my inbox gets filled very quickly and this is the reason I have disabled my lot notifications on my email and just taking notifications on email when I am being messaged by anyone as I think it counts as a rare event LOL

@Butterfingers My avator is not shown yet. It is still something wrong with the Mylot system. I tried to upload my avator to my setting but it doesn't work at all.

I think you haven't changed the settings but in case you like to receive less or no then you can change the notification settings

No, I only get notifications on myLot itself. My first discussion here shows how to set up email notifications so your myLot notifications go into their own inbox on your email account and doesn't fill up your regular inbox.

@Butterfingers Yeah, after I worked out how to do that on three of the major email servers, I didn't use it. I just posted what I'd found and turned email off for me.

That's a good tip, I might check that someday but I guess its fine for me as I check my lot several times in a day now so I don't need to take notifications on the email

@Butterfingers Yes, it can be very off putting when you're getting all these emails.

I think if we are regular on the website then we don't need to take these on email

At the bottom of the notification settings you can choose how often myLot sends an email, one of those choices is one email every 24 hours no matter how much you chat.

I think its a good option but I may not need it as I always like to check my lot several times in a day but yes it can be used at some point

I also disabled notification email few years ago. I prefer dealing with notifications directly on mylot.

No I would rather get my messages through the site rather than by email.

Yes you can check from website but with email you will at least know who messaged you and many times the message too
