Fwd: Receiving unsolicited email updates from Discourse and no options to unsubscribe

[Regina Obe]

Giovanni,

I saw that you were a member of QGIS-it-user group.

Perhaps you were autoadded at some point in time because perhaps you sent an email there before it was migrated.

Your user account says the primary email is your giohappy one, but is associated with your github account which has a different email.

Are you able to log in as G_Allegri?  Unfortunately I don't think I can unwatch any lists you are watching, and when you were added to the QGIS-it user group you were probably set to automatically watch the associated category.

If you go here - 

https://discourse.osgeo.org/c/qgis/qgis-it-user/47

And click the bell icon, you should be able to unwatch.

Can you forward me the email you got.  I thought all these had a unwatch on them.  Mine do, but shows as small link at bottom of email.

Thanks,
Regina
