Any thread you posted to before you (or Danny) reset the email option will continue to send you notifications. Do not despair. Go to the User Control Panel (the user cp link up there ^) and you'll see you've been 'subscribed' to that thread. Just unsubscribe and they'll stop.
If you subscribe to your favourite forums, on that same (user cp) page you'll get a summary or subset containing just those. Saves a bit of scrolling past the privates or other things which don't interest you. Set the page as your bookmark and you'll get to where you want to be a bit quicker.
