Hi Sheriffs and Bartenders !
There is a functionality - once person posts in some
thread - (s)he get subscribed for new posts notifications. That's fine, I love it and I use it.
And the body of notification says : "You will not get more notifications until you read the topic." -
this is actually broken. I receive notification for every new post, no matter - visited I thread or not.
It happened to me today specifically for this thread:
https://coderanch.com/t/679900/certification/Kathy-Sierra-Bert-Bates
I get a bunch of emails that thread was updated (instead of one), they are like that:
You received this email because the topic "* Welcome Kathy Sierra & Bert Bates" in the Associate Certification (OCAJP 7/8) forum has received a reply from member Marco Farrugia since your last visit.

(see the different anchor in URLs.
And I did not revisit the thread, and keep receiving these emails.
Maybe this thread is special, I did not check with other threads.
I know about "unwatch" option, but I don't want to unwatch it 8-)
Thanks,
