I had this set up initially during testing and can't recall where I go to turn it off. My forum is live now and my inbox is flooded.
Please help :-)
I'm the forum admin user. Version 4.1.2

Thanks for the lifeline boofo!
I'm getting messages on ALL forums in my vbulletin.
There must be a global setting right?

These 2 settings are the only ones I know of under the Moderation Options in each forum in the manager:
Email Addresses to Notify When there is a New Post
(Separate each address with a SPACE)
Email Addresses to Notify When there is a New Thread
(Separate each address with a SPACE)

@Boofo, I know I remember doing that on one forum perhaps, but I've clicked on every one of my forums and those fields are empty on all of them.
Is it possible that there is a parent container forum that is hidden or deleted and that's why I'm getting emails.
I've got access to the database. I suppose I can do a search on it to see everywhere that my email address appears.
Unless anyone has any other ideas, I'm stumped.

I guess I never knew that was there. Good to know.
