  I have searched for how to turn off emails being sent to people following my blog. I am still unclear. I do not want my posts to be emailed at this time. Where can I control this? thanks

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You cannot prevent any Public posts you publish from appearing in the RSS Feed for your posts http://charts101.wordpress.com/feed/ unless you make visibility changes to “private” or “password protected”.

  Your subscribers control their subscriptions and the frequency they choose to set fro receiving your posts.

  Thank you for your response.

  says:

  “Private – Posts are only visible to blog Editors and Administrators. Private posts are not visible in the Reader, feeds, or in any search. A post can be private without being password protected.”

  I know I never set up any feeds.

  I thought there was a setting to turn on or off whether an email automatically gets sent to a follower.
  I thought I used such a setting to set up the email functionality in the first place.

  When you first follow a blog the “follow” button asks for an email where you will “Get every new post delivered to your Inbox.” This is specifically what I’m trying to control.
