email preferences not registering with site

[mikeseb]

Webmaster, please feel free to move if I've posted in the wrong spot.

I've tried several times to get my email preferences set to "instant notification" of replies posted to followed threads. I've done this, then logged out and back in. Still, when I ask to be notified of thread postings, it defaults to "delayed" notification.

A small thing, but can you suggest how to fix this? Thanks in advance.
