Stephen, Evidently posting a new image to the album doesn't trigger the "Follow" email notification.  At least I didn't get any notification, but then its my album and it may not send me one. Mike :(

Best way to follow any group is to click the "Follow" link located just below the comment box. After clicking it, the link should change the "Stop Following" the next time you visit the group or refresh the page. Mike :)
