  When I click the “Follow by Email” widget on my blog, it doesn’t prompt me to enter my email. It gives a message that I should be receiving a confirmation email (I didn’t get one)- and I’m not getting posts via email.

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

  Hi!

  Let me address each issue separately:

  it doesn’t prompt me to enter my email

  When you’re logged into WordPress.com, you will not be prompted to enter an email address. You will just see a follow button. Since we already know your email (it’s listed in your WordPress.com account), you’ll get subscriptions automatically through email.

  Non-WordPress.com users will see a form like this:

  It gives a message that I should be receiving a confirmation email (I didn’t get one)- and I’m not getting posts via email.

  It looks like you have blocked WordPress.com from sending you emails. You can change this here:

  https://wordpress.com/me/notifications

  Here is the option you will need to leave unchecked:
