Description Mihai Floran 2006-01-13 20:09:59 UTC
I propose a new thing to MediaWiki.
When an user recives a message in his talk page he could recive also an email
message announcing him that he has messages. 
Two conditions must be accomplished:
1. The user must provide an email adress
2. The user must check a box in his preferences
Comment 1 Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 2006-01-13 20:13:56 UTC
RESOLVED INVALID, this functionality already exists.
Comment 2 Antoine "hashar" Musso (WMF) 2006-01-13 20:14:46 UTC
Look at Enotif which is available since 1.5 .

$wgEnotifUserTalk = true;

Will enable email notification on user talk.
Comment 3 Mihai Floran 2006-01-13 20:15:49 UTC
The users can select if they recive or not messages?
Comment 4 Rob Church 2006-01-13 20:21:04 UTC
Yes.
Comment 5 lɛʁi לערי ריינהארט 2006-01-13 22:24:51 UTC
Regarding Mihai's original request (comment #0)
Was this a request regarding
a) MediaWiki functionality for new installations
b) MediaWiki functionality for WikiMedia foundation wiki's

Bug 3976: set up a procedure about activating the "ENotif on changes at own talk
pages" feature at WikiMedia foundation wiki's in [[Special:Preferences]]
Bug 3975: set up a procedure about activating the "Confirm your e-mail address"
feature at WikiMedia foundation wiki's in [[Special:Preferences]]


Regarding Ashar's answer at comment #2
> Look at Enotif which is available since 1.5 .

Does "Will enable email notification on user talk." means 
1) "Setting $wgEnotifUserTalk = true; will enable email notification on user
talk at new /available installatiuons."
2) "I will enable email notification on user talk at WikiMedia foundation wiki's."
