  I have the contact form widget on my blog and I get notifications to my email inbox stating,

  F5MC blog list contact

  Sent by an unverified visitor to your site.

  Am I right to just ignore those, and assume that your system has added them to my subscriptions list, or are you waiting for optin confirmation?

  I want to send them my posts in the mail.

  Please advise.

  Peace from Suthimon

  P.S. Thanks for a marvellous blogging system!!

  It looks like you have both the Blog Subscription Widget and the Text Widget with a contact form activated on your site.

  These emails are coming from your contact form, rather than the Blog Subscription Widget. If someone subscribes to your site, you’ll receive an email from WordPress.com letting you know that they’ve signed up.

  In this case, emails with the subject line “F5MC Blog List Contact” do not mean that someone has signed up to follow your site, but is simply using your contact form to send an email to you.

  I hope this helps to clarify things! (And thanks for your kind words — we’re glad to hear you’re enjoying your WordPress experience!)
