    Those don’t seem like WordPress’s registration email, they look like maybe part of an email subscription plugin?

    At Settings -> General in your dashboard, is “Anyone can register” checked or unchecked? In the Users section of your blog’s Dashboard, so you see these subscribers listed?

    Hi James,
    i really don’t know from where i receive the registration, i just only know that i still receiving messages from WordPress with subjec: New User subscribed to and in the e-mail header i found this:

    Subject: New user subscribed to: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
    X-PHP-Script: https://www.xxxxxxxxxxxx.net/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php for

    In settings the box Anyone can register is unchecked an i cannot see the user in the user section..

    basically could be some kind of spam, i don’t know, but it’s really unliked to still receive tens of e-mail per day..

    thanks
