  Hello, I posted this on another thread that was not closed, but was not sure if I should post a new topic, so I am posting here as well. If this is not correct etiquette please advise.

  Old wordpress.com blog address: http://mnestorc.wordpress.com. The blog has been transferred to wp.org and redirected to http://www.marshacannon.org. Jetpack is installed on new blog.

  I don’t think that old email subscribers got transferred over. New subscribers are receiving one email which looks great but I was told that subscribers through the original wordpress.com site are receiving 2 emails, apparently one with post photos, etc. and one without. I wanted to see if I could get assistance transferring over email subscribers from the wordpress.com site to wordpress.org site. Thank you!

  Please note that any WordPress.com followers who opted to receive email updates will need to re-subscribe again on your new site through the Jetpack signup box, otherwise they’ll only see new posts in their Reader. Non-WordPress.com email subscribers will continue to get email updates.

  Hi senordeer, I’d be happy to help you with this. However, both blogs you mentioned are linked to a different WordPress.com account. Can you please log in to the account that owns these blogs and reply to this thread to confirm that you want your subscribers transferred? Thanks!
