Email Count issue when creating new discussions in share

[sowmya]

Hi…
For every discussion forum updates in share, I need to get an email notification…
I created rules in alfresco explore and got emails for every updates..

My problem is whenever I am creating a new blog or new discussion forum, I am getting 2 mails..
One stating that there is a new discussion available in "discussion" space and the other stating that a new post available in "post-1281768539866_368" {space name} space.. Why it is so???

If I am replying for that forum, I am getting only one response mail.. So this additional email issue occurs only when creating new discussions or blog posts..
How to avoid this 2 emails and have a single notification email during new posts…
Thanks in advance…..

I was able to solve this when I noticed that the cm:content from which the second email was derived was emptly.  So I just made my rule trigger only when cm:content was >0 kb.  This solved the problem.
Now if I could only figure out how to get the html tags off of my emails that contain discussion content.  It always looks like this <p>My content</p>.
