Hi Laurie - Thanks for opening the ticket.
The issue in this case is that the site's privacy level has been set to "Discourage search engines..." at Dashboard > Options > Reading. This setting prevents blog actions (like publishing new posts) from creating new activity items, since those activity items would then be visible and potentially trackable in other places on the Commons. See #7376 for some prior discussion.
For the time being, my suggestion is to change the privacy setting to "Allow search engines...". Our team will continue to investigate the broader issue in #7376.

Ahhh. Thanks, Boone. Didn't realize it was such a simple fix - sorry. Good to know about privacy levels and email generation between site/group.
thanks!
