No worries, Nadez. And you're not a non-entity. I recognize your name, which is far more than I can say for about 95% of the people who visit this site...
Yes, the emails have been "patched". I at least got it to where people could see stuff. Unfortunately, now they may see some stuff they don't care about.
The program that sends out the emails compiles a list of who to send it to based on whether any of the updates that day are of interest to them. This part of the program has always worked, and has not been touched.
There is a second part, however, which told the program whether to show them a specific update for that day. This is the part that is somehow broken, and the part I have circumvented. Now the email just shows you ALL of that day's updates. So, you may see an item here or there that you don't care about... but it won't cause you to get extra emails. Every email will contain SOMETHING that pertains to you.
I'll get this fixed when life slows down a little. Right now, I just can't spare the time to look into it deeply.

If you want to receive ALL updates, there is a checkbox in the User utilities that will allow you to receive all of them, regardless of your Favorites settings....
Just go to the main site, then go to User Tools > Additional Options, and check the box that says "Receive All Email Updates". Make sure you click the "Save Changes" button at the bottom, too. This will let you receive every email that the site broadcasts.
(I don't know if you've already done this or not, Nadez. I just thought it was a good time to remind people it was there. )
