Edit 1: After the first two comments, I received one email each. Yay! However, both were published to my blog without moderation required. For me commenting as me, that makes sense because lord knows I don't need to censor myself, but the one I posted as Anonymous was also published without my approval. Is that because I'm still signed in and the site recognized me anyhow? So, now I will log out and post a comment anonymously.
Edit 2: I was about to say I didn't get the notification for comment 3 posted truly anonymously, but right after I signed back in here to check and I published it, I got the email. Maybe I didn't wait long enough.
Edit 3: Nope. I goofed. It sent me the email after I published the comment to tell me there was a new comment. So, it's not doing what I want it to do now. :(
So, let's take the email address out of the second spot and put it in the top one. That prolly makes more sense anywho since I want notification of new comments to approve and I really don't need an email telling me I clicked the publish button.
Edit 4: Yay! That works like I want it too. Now if some registered user will post me a comment, I can see if it works when they post since the site is smart enough to not require me to moderate my own comments to myself. lol
Edit 5: Thank you, Dakota. It is now working exactly like I want it too. I get an email when there are comments to moderate whether it's a registered member or anonymous and no email when I publish them. Yay! Problem solved.
Edit 6: Ok, so now I changed my mind and turned off the moderation so the comments will appear as soon as they are posted while still leaving anonymous allowed. I'll see how that goes.

So this is me posting a comment as me. What happens?
This is me again, but I clicked Anonymous as my identity.
So, it's me again. I'm signed out of my blog and posting anonymously.
