You probably clicked "Watch this topic" at the bottom of the page... Go to the post that you are subscribe to scroll down to bottom and click where it saids "Unsubscribe" or somthing similar.

How you deal with this depends if it is only topics you have posted in - and you can change your profile to have this off by default for any future posts but that doesn't of course take into account your previous ones - or an entire forum. If it is the entire forum enter it and look at the top of the page - just above the 'new topic' button it should say either 'Watch this forum for posts' or 'Stop watching this forum'. If it says the latter then click that and the e-mail's should stop. If it says the former then you are subscribed only to certain threads, to unsubscribe yourself from these threads you need to go into them, navigate to the bottom and click 'Stop watching this topic'.

It does apparently help to read the bottom of one of the e-mails:
You are receiving this email because you are watching the topic, "Unsubscribing" at PHP Forums - The PHPDN Unified Forums. If you no longer wish to watch this topic you can either click the "Stop watching this topic link" found at the bottom of the topic above, or by clicking the following link:

before getting too upset about continuing to receive them :lol: .
