 * Why is it, when I enable the feature to sign on for the newsletter on WordPress
   account creation, that user receive an email confirmation even when they have
   not ticked the checkbox. If a new user don’t tick the newsletter checkbox (for
   newsletter X) they ar not added to the newsletter I configured (X, which is correct)
   but still get a confirmation e-mail (which is not correct).
 * I think it is because they automatically are added to the WordPress Users list
   too. And for that reason an confirmation email is sent? But I don’t use this 
   list for my newsletter, I use only newsletter X for it instead.
 * How it should work (IMHO): if a new user on WP registration ticks the checkbox,
   they will be added to newsletter X and the WordPress Users group and receive 
   a confirmation email. If a new user on WP registration DON’T ticks the checkbox,
   the y will be added to the WordPress Users group only and DON’T receive a confirmation
   e-mail

 * Hi [@ma9manl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ma9manl/)
 * We’re sorry about that, we know how annoying that is. We plan on fixing that 
   for good real soon.
