# Subscribed

Conversations you're following without owning them, and how to follow or stop following one.

**Subscribed** lists open conversations you're following but that aren't assigned to you. Following keeps a conversation in view after you've helped with it, so you see how it ends without having to own it.

The list opens with conversations from today and yesterday, from Aidan Loxley, Callum Tindall and Doreen Kasprzak, each carrying a sender avatar, a subject, the person it is assigned to and coloured tags such as Urgent and Warranty.](https://www.neuracrm.com/help/teamemail/my-work/subscribed-list-cropped.png)

*Conversations you're following, none of them assigned to you.*

## How you start following a conversation

Mostly it happens by itself. You follow a conversation when you:

- Are assigned it
- Post a note on it
- Are @mentioned in a note
- Are added to it by a teammate

To follow one yourself, open it and select **Subscribe**, beside the tags under its title. If nobody follows it yet, that link isn't shown: select **+** (Add participant) beside the inbox badge and choose yourself instead.

## Stop following

Open the conversation and select the avatars under its title to see its **Participants**. Beside your own name, select **Unsubscribe**. You can't unsubscribe from a conversation that's assigned to you: reassign it first.

When a conversation is reassigned, its previous owner stops following it automatically.
