Wondering if there’s a way in terms of settings where, sadly, we can set specific notifications by product or EXCLUDE specific notifications by product, ie., much as I love ya all, I would probably not be interested in a lot of the comments on, say Polaris, or Vega - Is there a “profile” somewhere where we can tick the possible key products to indicate which ones we are more globally interested in. I see the tags, but know also that some people (like me) rarely remember to tag anything 😉 Just curious if we can somehow sculpt our profiles to reflect items of interest.

Don’t forget that once you have your email notifications dialed in, [you can email in new topics](https://forum.innovativeusers.org/t/i-dont-want-to-use-the-forum-web-interface-enabling-the-email-listserv-setting/212#starting-new-topic-threads-via-email-3), and you don’t have to use the web forum at all.
