Would love to see this same setting for:

> Send me email notifications even when I am active on the site [including my posts | except my posts]

I have some former listserv users who are ready to mutiny over the need to have a copy of their own posts. They can’t fathom (see what I did there) not seeing their own posts/replies that they submit to categories they are watching.

I am a fan of the “users don’t know what they want” theory, but I am about to lose the project over it. Every time the feature request comes up, this happens…
