Has Astrobin been hacked??

Got a bunch of emails sent (7.45am) to my astro email address claiming to be from Astrobin and saying I had a new follower and "likes" etc. Haven't been there for yonks and don't accept emails I'm not expecting so deleted them. Anyone else getting these emails?

Normal for AB to send these - I get them routinely.

I got one this morning saying RickS had posted a new image

That's weird. I only get very occasional emails. I think the last one was when they decided to open source the Astrobin code. I can't find a setting in the preferences that would stop me getting normal notifications?

Just checked my astrobin account and all my "no emails" settings have reverted to send emails when just about anything happens. Must be a new version of website software that has reset everything. Ok. Back to sleep!! False alarm.
Cheers
