  I am a non-tech savvy blogger (Im a widowed grandma so cut me some slack) and I have a reader who signed up for email notifications but she is getting numerous emails for every comment to my blog. How can I change her / tell her how to change her notification preference ?

  Hi there,
  You can’t do this for her.

  go here > http://wordpress.com/#!/read/edit/ locate the blog
  go to the Get new posts by email column
  select one of these in the dropdown menu
  never
  instantly
  daily
  weekly

  P.S. Advice: As old people can indeed learn new tricks, never play the age card online, as the person you are playing it with may in fact be older than you are.

  Thanks for your help ! Whether I feel really old or young seems to depend on the moment, but your point is well taken : )

  Does your solution work for email notifications of comments? The comments seem to be more of a problem.

  No what I posted was for receiving new posts. To un-follow the comments on a specific post the email received will have a link at the bottom that says subscription options
  note the screen shot http://wpmod.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/2012-09-06_2029.png
  After the reader clicks the link they can find the post and hover their mouse over it and an un-follow link will appear.
