I read a post recently by someone who had the same thing happen.
I noticed a heap of notifications in my mail box this morning from RFF ... WTF? I'm only subscribed to one thread and that's the Zuikoholics thread!
When I checked my user CP I was amazed to discover I am now subscribed to no less than eighty five (85) threads! It's not rocket science to unsubscribe from all those but it's an interesting glitch none the less!

There's a setting your profile on the default thread subscription setting: User CP --> Edit Options --> Messaging and Notification --> Default Thread Subscription Mode. Somehow it was reset to "if you post in a thread you subscribe to it". Change it to "Do not subscribe" and all will be back to normal (i.e., you will still have to unsub from the threads you've posted in, but you won't automatically subscribe to new threads when you post to them).

Yeah I found that ... I'm kind of intrigued that it decided to reset itself!

I was wondering about that - thanks.

Even after dissabling the auto subscribe function I still had to delete all the subscriptions manually.
I'm also intrigued that not only did it activate itself ... it subscribed me to every thread I've posted in recently!

Yes, that's definitely related.

It happened to me too, Keith. The problem is it was a different thing that got turned on (e-mail notification), besides the subscribing. Software flaw, or something more insidious?

Yea, I had a notification by email this morning about a thread I had recently posted to. I had to manually delete it. Notification by email was not selected in my user CP and still isn't, just checked.

Sure you are looking in the right place? There are a couple of different email notifications that are configurable - the one for "Default Thread Subscription Mode" in the Options page would be the appropriate one.
Each time I received unwanted notifications that one had magically changed from "no email" to "instant email". That said, mine was set to "instant" this morning, and changed this evening from "no email" (to which I had set it in the late afternoon) to "no subscription" - so perhaps yours was changed there and back as well...
The behaviour (random value changes) would be very easy to explain if that database table has got got its keys mixed up so that multiple users are using and editing one value, or if the software is somehow storing that value globally (or at any rate for larger user groups) rather than individually.
