Hello and welcome @proot 🙂

Have you ticked the box on your Preferences/Notifications page?

`[YourSite]/my/preferences/notifications`

 ![Preferences Notifications Follow](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/8/5/8580db1a025326bc2f3dbc493e5200e743858b49.jpeg)

(and it might be worth checking your Preferences/Emails settings too 👍)

**Edit:**

Having said that, I now can’t remember if I’ve ever received an email for a Follow notification. 🤔 I shall go and test.

**Update:** It does not look like that is a notification that triggers an email.

Hopefully someone will correct me if I’m mistaken…
