      Need to let people know that email alerts are down for a while. We have grown so quickly that not only are we overrunning our daily email sending limits (we are on MailGun from Rackspace) but we are overrunning our monthly limits as well! We are now down for the month. We are working on getting the account upgraded and getting emails turned back on. But for the moment, you are not going to get any alerts.

          I would assume this...

          Your First 10,000 Emails Are Free Every Month

            Yes, we are trying to move to a big account, but having account issues due to a credit card compromise.

                Ehh, leave it down. Nothing of value will be lost IMHO

                  I had them on for a day, then killed them... I was getting overrun with emails.

                    How many people actually use the email updates stuff? I delete them almost as soon as I receive them... probably should disable it to help out.

                      I would set the default to no longer send. Then if people want them, they can turn them on.

                        That would be good as we pay per email 😉

                          Problem there is.... people who need them tend to be the ones who don't know how to turn them on or didn't turn them on and won't know. People who don't need them can easily tell to turn them off.

                            This is a good feature for non-frequent ML users.

                              Exactly. It is the newbie user who comes in, has a thread or two of their own, and wants to know that they are getting responses or that someone is IMing them.

                                What about disabling emails manually for everyone who has over 500 posts?

                                  Could be done, but we'd need to code that up and it would be pretty surprising to people that suddenly their email behaviour changes individually like that.

                                    These people don't need email notifications and they will consume the bulk of emails.

                                        Do any of them have email alerts turned on, though?

                                          I would imagine so if you are hitting 10k. This hog below may account for at least 10% of the emails if not more.
