Turns out a cohort of mine is having this same issue. Will post back when we sort it out.
I opened a support ticket and they believe it's a bug in the API. Will post more when I know it.
I will make this public as there might be more people hitting this issue.
The UI control you see is actually a combination of two different settings. The following are the "never" (false) versus not never (true) settings:
profile.board.delivery_enable profile.label.delivery_enable profile.tag.delivery_enable profile.message.delivery_enable profile.search.delivery_enable profile.topic.delivery_enable profile.tkb.delivery_enable profile.mentions.delivery_enable profile.solutions.delivery_enable profile.kudo.delivery_enable profile.badge.delivery_enable profile.moderation_action.delivery_enable profile.helpfulness.delivery_enable
And the following are the settings that have a string value: "immediate", "weekly", "daily".
profile.board.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.label.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.tag.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.message.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.search.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.topic.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.mentions.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.solutions.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.tkb.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.kudo.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.badge.email_delivery_freq profile.moderation_action.sub_email_delivery_freq profile.helpfulness.sub_email_delivery_freq
There are also these settings to enable/disable in-app realtime notifications:
profile.board.in_app_delivery_enable profile.label.in_app_delivery_enable profile.tag.in_app_delivery_enable profile.message.in_app_delivery_enable profile.search.in_app_delivery_enable profile.topic.in_app_delivery_enable profile.tkb.in_app_delivery_enable
Please note that all of these settings are actually wired up to the UI or the subscription backend ; so please don't assume a feature exists just because it is listed here.
Edit:
This setting doesn't do anything:
profile.solutions.delivery_enable
Instead, for solutions, use this setting:
config.notify_solutions
I noticed another one with a mismatch... This setting doesn't do anything:
profile.mentions.delivery_enable
Instead, for mentions set this...
mentions.notify_user_mentions
to true when profile.mentions.sub_email_delivery_freq is immediate, daily or weekly... and set it to false for never.
