That's not helpful, though. The email basically says "Something happened, but you asked not to be notified about it, so don't worry I won't tell you". Why even send that email in the first place? Anyone who opted out of the release monitoring notifications (note: I didn't opt out, I actually find it great) doesn't want any notification, let alone one that says "I won't notify you". The default setting for notifications really ought to be changed here. -- Mathieu _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
