On the preferences page I can’t deselect the option “Send me an email for every new post (unless I mute the topic or category)”. I am using an Administrator account and the setting: “default email mailing list mode” is unticked. The version of Discourse I am running is Version v1.6.0.beta1 +277. I can’t replicate this on another instance of Discourse I have running which is Version v1.6.0.beta1 +92. Please advise, thanks. ---

Works for me on `v1.6.0.beta1 +288` (EDIT: in Google Chrome) Perhaps: 1. Try a different browser 2. Disable browser plugins 3. ensure you are up to date with latest 4. disable any Discourse plugins you have added. ---

Thank you Dean! I can deselect this preference using Chrome on OSX El Capitan but not on safari 9.1 on OSX El Capitan or IE11 on Windows 7. ---

I can confirm this is a bug. I’ve tested on Windows 10 IE 11 - I am unable to deselect the "Send me an email for every new post (unless I mute the topic or category) ". Unexpected prompt “Are you sure you want to be emailed for every new post?” is displayed with Yes/No buttons when deselecting. Although this works fine on Google Chrome. * * * EDIT: ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/5/0/506e6ea758c9999762b12a99fba8e21bef89c0e8.gif) ---

Almost certainly a bug, @sam with the dialog alert? ---

I’m also having a lot of users reporting that the ‘Send me an email for every new post…’ option is greyed-out meaning they can’t unselect it. Weirdly though, if I Impersonate them, it’s usually fine and I can unselect it for them. I was wondering if this apparent bug might be related to the one reported here. ---
