  Can I add another email address to receive notifications when comments are posted to my blog? I create all the content on behalf of my family (I’m the primary account holder), but my husband would love to get notified when new comments arrives. Thank you!

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

  I don’t think this is possible (although others might know how to do this).

  However if you’re using Gmail, you can create a filter rule telling it to forward every notification email from WordPress.com to your family members’s emails. Something like this: http://www.tomjepson.co.uk/how-to-auto-forward-specific-emails-in-gmail/

  Hi there,

  Comment notifications are sent to the person who writes the post (the post author) — there isn’t a way to add another email address for those notifications.

  I’d recommend setting up something like hfzrhmn suggested, to auto-forward those notification emails to your husband from your email account. Please let me know if you have any other questions about that. :)
