In reply to: Discussion Settings obstacle…need to change…Esmi, thank you. You have quoted one part of my message: “and also to the authors of every comment in the thread.” Is that one clause the functionality that is not a part of WordPress? If that’s what you mean, I am confused, because the WordPress documentation says that the “me” in “E-mail me every time someone posts a comment” means both admins and all authors in the specific discussion.
If what you mean is that splitting those–so that only the admin and not the authors get the e-mails–then I understand, and that is what needs to be fixed. Apparently, though, it is doing exactly what it is supposed to do based on the documentation, but I am trying to find a way to change that default setting of “me means admins plus authors.”

In reply to: I want to receive admin notification of new users…but I do notOK, the problem is that I don’t speak programming language and, in looking for words I recognize I see the following:
I am using a hosting service, not my own box.
My admin address is a valid address (although granted lots of people hate AOL, but it’s still a valid address).All I can tell as a novice is that I am doing nothing wrong, changing nothing in the system, and it’s not doing what it is supposed to do. This is as frustrating to someone who does speak the language, I’m sure, as it is to me, not able to do all that coding.

In reply to: I want to receive admin notification of new users…but I do notThank you, Esmi, but that is not the problem. The new user who self-registers chooses his or her own password right there.
The problem is that the Admin (me) is not receiving e-mail to tell me that someone new has just registered.
