Email preference settings

You can view and reply to messages from other members and your Town moderators online at any time in My Messages.

Here's how to customize your email settings

Go to  https://freecycle.org and log in, if necessary. 

Click on the My Menu icon and select Settings  

Global Email Settings

Changing this setting will NOT affect the emails you receive about new posts in your Freecycle Towns (see Town Email Preferences below). The default setting is unchecked (off). After you make your selections, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Save Changes.

• Messages: Put a check mark in this box to receive an email each time a Freecycle Friend sends you a message. 
• System Notifications: Put a check mark in this box to receive emails for Notifications that require an action on your part, like when another member sends a Friend request. 

Town Email Preferences

When joining a Town, you are initially set up for the default email setting of Digest. You can change the setting for each Town in this section. Make your selection, scroll down, and click Save Changes.

• Receive an email for every new post - You will receive an email for each post when it is created on the website.
• Receive a digest of all new posts - You will receive one email containing up to 25 posts, at least once a day.
• Only receive emails for Town notices- You will only receive occasional messages from your moderator team.
• Never receive emails - you will receive no Post or Town Notice emails but you will be able to view all posts, messages and Town notices online at any time in My Messages.

Friends Circle Email Preferences

The default setting for Friends Circle is an email for every new post. You can change that setting here. Make your selection and then scroll down to the bottom of the page and click  Save Changes.

• Receive an email for every new post - You will receive an email for each post when it is created on the website. This is the fastest way to be notified by email about new posts.
• Receive a digest of all new posts - You will receive one email containing up to 25 posts, at least once a day.
• Never receive emails - you will receive no emails but you will be able to view all posts, messages and Town notices online at any time.
