Watching without mails

[udo_martens]

Hi,

may trivial, but i didnt find it out: Can somebody explain me, how to watch threads (with that binocular icon) threads in the forum but getting <b>NO</b> mails? Ok, one solution would be, to put a wrong mail address in the profile, but is there a better way?

Regards,

Udo

Udo,

Not sure I followed this

XI seems to be easier to figur eout at times I guess . One way ofcourse, you can use RSS readers to watch the forums threads you want.

Hi Bhavesh,

this forum is living, not only the people as well the software. Hoping for some useful changes..

But, what the hell, are RSS readers??

Internet Explorer 7.0 contains an RSS reader as well.

But I have not seen the possibility to you this for forum questions. I use it for blogs only.

Stefan,

IE 7.0 doesnt work with my XI 3.0 on Sp 14 and so I have not upgraded my IE to 7.0 .But thanks for letting me know that IE 7.0 by default has the RSS readers.

Hi Bhavesh,

Sorry, I did not think about this.

In my company's PC I have installed IE 6.0.

At home I have IE 7.0.

Stefan,

Any info from you is always useful. Even if it doesnt help now, it sure will when i start using IE 7.0

Hi Sreeramoju,

yes, i can do that, but only explicit for every thread. So if i post to any thread - and i'm posting a lot - i have to unmark that check box. Actually I would like to cancle emails at all.

I cancelled the automatic watch of threads, which I reply to.

When I am interested in a topic, I set the watch in order to receive mails.
