Hi Theresa, Thanks for asking. You will *absolutely* have an option to receive email. The email will come from YM when a member sends out a question or a response.
You also have two ways in which you can subscribe to Forums: through Manage Profile, and from the Forums page. They'll both ultimately get you to the page where you can select your choices. *Forums* Click on the Tools tab (top right). Once there, select Go To Forums. The image below shows what you will see. Just under the title ACUPA Forums, there is this label: My Subscriptions and Settings. If you click on that, you'll see the second image that I've pasted into this email. You may manage your choices from there.

Once you've clicked on that, you have a page of choices. Under Community, there should be one labeled Forum Settings. It's here that you check your preferences. This is what mine looks like. There are currently four Forum categories (see the left side of the image below). You'll notice that I subscribed to everything. If I didn't want Instant Updates, for example, I would click on the red X below and then I would still receive the Digests ( Forum Last Activity Subscribed Options Policy Subject Matters <http://acupa.site-ym.com/forums/Topics.aspx?forum=188376> 11/21/2017 11/4/2015 Unsubscribe from Instant UpdatesUnsubscribe from Digest Policy Process <http://acupa.site-ym.com/forums/Topics.aspx?forum=188375> 11/15/2017 11/4/2015 Unsubscribe from Instant UpdatesUnsubscribe from Digest Website Management and Suggestions <http://acupa.site-ym.com/forums/Topics.aspx?forum=188377> 10/31/2017 11/4/2015 Unsubscribe from Instant UpdatesUnsubscribe from Digest Other Administrative Matters <http://acupa.site-ym.com/forums/Topics.aspx?forum=188378> 3/6/2017 11/4/2015 Unsubscribe from Instant UpdatesUnsubscribe from Digest If you have any difficulties, please contact the webmaster, Joshua Adams at j...@cornell.edu for further assistance.
