Usage of I've been

So, I wanted to write this line in one of the emails to my friends but I wasn't sure if it is grammatically correct or not. Do you find anything wrong with this sentence ?

"I've lately been receiving very many emails where I saw people using the term "revert" instead of "reply"."

and also

"Reverting is going back to a previous state - as in when you ask someone to "revert back" you are asking him/her to go back to become an ape again"

Thank you for your response Clive but I just have this one single doubt that when we talk about present continuous tense we are talking about an action that has begun sometime before and is still progressing. So when I want to talk about that particular window that has happened from the point where it started to the present point wouldn't I be able to use "saw" ?
