Finally, the long-awaited “E-mail notifications” feature has been released.
A new set of options has been added to the “Preference” page:

Here is how these settings work…

Enabling the “new tasks and projects I’m involved in” checkbox will cause the system to send you emails for the following events:

• You’ve been assigned as a project manager for a new project
• You’ve been assigned a new task

The “important changes to my tasks and projects” option is triggered when:

• Project status was changed (sent to all project members)
• Projects goals were changed (sent to the project manager only)
• “Warning” message was left in a project (sent to all project members)
• “Warning” message was left in a task (sent to all assignees and project manager)
• You’ve been assigned a new task
• Task status was changed (sent to the project manager and assignees)
• Task start or end dates were changed (sent to all assignees)
• File or message was added to a project (sent to the project manager)
• File or message was added to a project (sent to all assignees)

Please note that e-mail notifications won’t be sent to a person who made the changes, since we assume that this person already know what he did.

If you have the “upcoming deadlines X days prior” enabled, then you’ll be notified X days before the end date of each task assigned to you.

“Combine notifications into groups sent out every X hours” is a great feature for those who receive a lot of notifications. You can set it up to receive digest of all events only once or twice a day.

And the “Never e-mail me on weekends” option is hopefully self-explanatory.
We hope that you enjoy this feature.

As always, please submit your feedback and ideas at our community support site or write us a comment.

Cheers,
