Comment (by mrfoxtalbot):

 Thank you @dd32 .


 > To be clear, your account or the notifications account?

 I should have been clearer. This issue is only happening on an account
 called `cometnotifications`. We use this account to subscribe to certain
 forums and topics but we do not post any replies with it. Yesterday, I
 noticed that the box was unchecked. I reactivated the notification for
 `cometnotifications` and they started working again but when I checked a
 few minutes ago, it was unchecked again.

 > Do you perform any actions that might trigger it being deactivated? I
 haven't been able to find any.

 None that I am aware of. We do not post replies or create new threads
 using this account. Its sole purpose is to subscribe to forums and receive
 notifications. These emails are then fed into a Trello board but I use my
 personal account `mrfoxtalbot` to post replies.

 > The email unsubscribe links

 Do you think it could be this? Do we have a way to track when one of these
 unsubscribe links is used?

 Thanks again for your help.
