The forum sends mails from a number of different actions - if you watch a forum or watch a topic you get different notifications - I changed the software so that if you watched a forum, you did not get the same notification from a topic in that forum.

It uses various conditionals to determine what to send and if you change one it can change how it reacts to another - getting it to behave is not straightforward . We test changes on a test forum but that doesn't always replicate the real world with real users!

Anyway, I have set up an email monitor now so I can keep an eye on what it is up to and hopefully track down what is causing the hiccoughs.

As for the new post ranger antics, I think this is due to issues with browsers and cookies - a different issue to the email notification one.
