    Are you referring to the subscription emails being sent to subscribers whenever you publish a new post? If so, you can stop sending such emails by going to Jetpack > Settings, and deactivating the Subscriptions module. That module is still active on your site right now.

    Looking at your sidebar, you also seem to be using Mailchimp to collect email addresses. If you send out emails through Mailchimp, you’ll want to disable that too.

    I hope this helps.

    Thanks Jeremy. I am talking about subscriptions through jetpack. Up until a fe days I had that widget and now I am trying to stop those emails. I did follow what you said, yet they are still going out?

    I want to turn on Mailchimp (which is the widget you are seeing), but haven’t yet since JP is still sending them out.

    The Subscriptions module still appears to be active. Could you check and make sure it’s deactivated?

    Omg I could hug you right now! I was deactivating ‘posts by email’.

    What is the difference?

    Post By email allows you to publish posts on your site, but without having to log in to your dashboard and go to Posts > Add New. Instead, you can just send an email to a secret email address, and that email will be published on your site. You can read more about it here:

    Yes!

    Although if you’re interested in switching from Jetpack Subscriptions to Mailchimp, you might want to export your subscriber list from Jetpack first, and import that list into Mailchimp.

    To access your list of Jetpack subscribers, you’ll need to turn the Subscriptions module back on, and then follow these instructions:
    https://jetpack.com/support/subscriptions/#view-your-email-subscribers

    You’ll find a download link at the bottom of the list of subscribers.

    Yes I have already done that and created my campaign so hopefully I am good to go! Thanks
