Is there a way to send an e-mail to a customer regarding specific category or sub category? For example, I would like to know if there is any new post under the features section of community. ---

I am not entirely following what you are saying here. You can set a category to “subscribe to first post” using the bell (notifications) icon on the right side when viewing a category like so: ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/a/b/ab3bdad2be966134745ed0d480f38d1730f7cfe6.png) ---

Hey Jeff, Thank you for the screenshots. Basically I am new to community and am exploring the features. I was not able to find the feature, so dropped the query here. I follow the steps you suggested and they seem to work. Thank you for your time. Regards, Nandini Priyadarshini
