<ul></ul><p>Issue still present in 1.4.0.<br />Can anyone respond to whether my interpretation of the "Email notifications" settings is correct?</p> Redmine - Defect #10656: Email notifications not working as expected?https://www.redmine.org/issues/10656?journal_id=375782012-04-20T08:00:45ZDavid Boyer
<ul></ul><p>I agree with you, the wording of the email setting does make it a little confusing. It does make sense to me that if I've selected items to "watch" then I'll still receive notifications. Only because you (from what I can tell) have to manually select items, whereas other emails are sent because of system events.</p>
<p>Perhaps there should me another setting for watch notifications being sent or not.</p> Redmine - Defect #10656: Email notifications not working as expected?https://www.redmine.org/issues/10656?journal_id=375832012-04-20T08:21:28ZDaniel Morgan

<p>I agree with your interpretation if I selected to watch an item myself.<br />However, when someone creates an issue, they can add however many watchers they want.<br />In this case, the item was not selected by me and therefore lacks consistency.</p> Redmine - Defect #10656: Email notifications not working as expected?https://www.redmine.org/issues/10656?journal_id=375982012-04-20T14:51:18ZTerence Mill
