I have been watching, and counting the number of duplicate e-mails, just to be sure I have a handle on what the issue is...

It appears that the e-mail notification system is not checking for duplicate e-mail addresses, so I receive a duplicate for each post I make in a thread.

1 reply, I get one e-mail (even if I am the one who posted)

2 replies, 2 emails

3 replies, 3 emails

and so on

This is occurring with notifications from the forums and script recommendation clarification requests.

Dave

Yes, that seems to be a known bug in the queue to be in the queue for fixing. Probably you are getting subscribed to a thread more than once.

There is a weird bug that causes duplicated subscription to forums and threads.

For now I have added a workaround to avoid sending more than one notification per user. It is not a real bug fix but would avoid the inconvenience. You should only receive one notification for this thread.

You may still see duplicated forum thread subscriptions when you click on the link to (Un)Subcribe forum or thread alerts.
