Hey there, Ghiath Kamel
This will be because you have email notifications turned on for followed threads. If you follow a tag, any new questions posted to that tag (or responses posted to those questions) will generate an email notification to you. This was annoying for me, so I turned it off.
To turn it off, please go to your settings page here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/users/me/settings/
Once you have signed into your settings page, please click onto Q&A preferences
This will allow you to customize your email preferences. You will want to change the following options to an option that suits you:
- Receive email when a question is posted on a tag you follow,
- Receive email when a question you follow is edited,
- Receive email when questions you follow do not have any answers,
- Receive email when an answer is posted on a question you follow,
- Receive email when an answer is edited on a question you follow,
- Receive email when an answer is accepted on a question you follow,
- Receive email when a comment is posted on a question you follow,
If you scroll a bit further down, you can choose how you wish Q&A to follow questions for your account.
You could also turn off the option to follow questions with tags you're following.
Hope this helps,
Nathan
