All the sites I have emailing me are set to only do it once a day, that is an option here too. I tend to be on and off all during the day, so I just check email in the morning and respond to any threads that call for it, then just periodically check during the day. Of course it probably depends a lot on how you use the forums. I drive truck for a living, and I'm usually only on during the day while waiting to load or unload. Normally when I get home I'm working with the critters or spending time with the family, and I don't need or want stuff bugging me then.
