Thanks,

Re: I'm getting blasted with phpbb e-mails
Just got 2 more. 
Re: I'm getting blasted with phpbb e-mails
And 2 more again. 
Re: I'm getting blasted with phpbb e-mails
Check the emails and make sure that they are also Welcome emails, and not just a bunch of emails letting you know someone replied to a topic you posted in(that feature is enabled by default here). if that's the case just go to the UCP under preferences and turn it off.
Re: I'm getting blasted with phpbb e-mails
oops, there's 2 more. get the idea? every 5 minutes I get 2 welcome messages.
Re: I'm getting blasted with phpbb e-mails
Thanks Magnotta, they are all the same as I posted. Same subject, content and headers. They come every 5 minutes.
Re: I'm getting blasted with phpbb e-mails

Alright, No need for the excessive posting.
As for the emails, this is a development board. Errors are expected
