How do I stop Chess.com from emailing me everytime it's my turn, or I'm about to lose on time or whatever?  I only check my email once a week or so, but it always seems like I have 50 emails from Chess.com.

Why you are so lazy????!!!!!!!!!!!

please excuse dalmatinac - his manners classes don't start for another week.

you can manage your alerts on the link he provided. but be careful - make sure you don't timeout! :) 

Ah, thanks.  I figured it would've been under settings.

don't read most time it is junk mail

Is there a way to disable people from using the "send an eMail" option and just have the "Leave a Message" option as a communications method?

This comes from the ACTIONS "block" on the right-hand side of the screen when you are viewing a friend's profile.   Non-friends do not have the "send an eMail" option.

Just because I've flagged someone as a chess.com friend doesn't mean I want them to be able to send me eMails 

At this time, there is no way to keep those on your chess.com friends e-mail list from e-mailing you. If you don't want them to have access to your normal e-mail address, maybe you can open a second, free, e-mail account? Hey, maybe even a free @chess.com e-mail address?

Thanks, maybe in a future enhancement there will be an option included
