Hi Nathan, Tom,

thanks for the assistance!

Looks like the error is still there. The page does not offer any visible option to subscribe, and as
soon as I try to post or “administer my email subscriptions” I am made to login to my Google account,
which then offers me only the list of addresses registered with Google for signing up  to the forum -
which excludes my work mail address for the reasons above.

Cheers,
