You can always turn off the email option in your profile.

I don't approve with messages being sent like this, but, I have got some good deals on advertising with users contacting me from forums. I've been quite lucky to not get a load of rubbish that I'm not in the slightest bit interested in.

I know it says WT isn't responsible, but the forum is called "Report PM or Email Spam".
