I imagine thsi was done to close a loop that more annoying members often used to send messages to people. You could psot a reply toa message and then edit it immediately.
The uneditied version was sent out and the editied one shows up on the boards.
This is a band-aid fix at best to control out of control members.

Thank you Jeff for that insight.
However, you would be wrong. I simply couldn't understand why this was set up this way because basically the way this was set up, the member didn't even have to visit the site to see the post.
Of course Lawnsite wants the members to keep checking in, with the post included in the email, they wouldn't have to do that.

If anyone responded to an email instead of posting on the site it would never be seen by anyone but me since the notification email is coming from my address....so, as Jodi said, that was not why the change was made.
In all honesty, I'm LESS likely to check back because I don't want to wait for the window to open to see what was said. The new way isn't anymore likely to get someone to post a new comment IMO or to check back. Is this true?...or am I just whiny?

In really like being able to see what was said in the email, so many replies dont even pertain to the origanal thread. I dont see the need for email notifacation now, you will have to come to lawn site anyway. so why not do away email notifacation all together, save us the space on our inbox, or make it where you have to check for email notifacation and not have it where its auto on

it is your choice whether you receive email notification or not
My dad use to always say, if it isn't broke don't fix it. Another thing he taught me (he was a business man) was never make unnecessary changes that effect your customers unless you have to or it will benefit the customer. He said the number one thing that will make a happy customer unhappy is constant change.
