Description lɛʁi לערי ריינהארט 2005-12-06 23:28:49 UTC
Hallo!

I made the test both at
http://test.leuksman.com/view/Main_Page
having "E-mail me when my user talk page is changed" enabled
ant at http://test.wikipedia.jp/ where more the ENotif extemsion / more
functionality of the ENotif extension is enabeled.

Notes:
- "''Enable e-mail from other users''" as activated
- at http://test.wikipedia.jp/ I have clicked on "Mark all pages visited".

best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]

That bug report is utterly incomprehensible.

how to test this yourserlf

in the attachment
http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/attachment.cgi?id=1167
of Bug 3805: Phantom 'You have new messages' notification with enotif
is a change where I found the comment
  # If the user talk page is *our* *own*, clear the flag
  # when we are reading it or writing it.

I tried to use two acconts on the same Windows XP computer.
I was logged in with the user name GangleriBot in IE using one e-mail address
and with the user name Gangleri in Firefox using *onother* e-mail address.

I changed the talk page of GangleriBot in Firefox (being user Gangleri) but I
did *not* receive an e-mail notification.

a) I did get e-mail notifications about the change of user_talk:GangleriBot if
*other* users changed.
b) I also tried scenarios modifying user_talk:GangleriBot being logged out in
either IE or Firefox or both. Somtimes I did receive a confirmation about the
change of user_talk:GangleriBot somtimes *not* depending if I restarted the PC
or not.

Both http://test.leuksman.com/view/Special:Emailuser/GangleriBot and Both
http://test.leuksman.com/view/Special:Emailuser/Gangleri worked always. However
Brion told me that the mailserver rejected Enotif's about changing
user_talk:Gangleri. I assume that this happens because  the e-mail headers differ.

Please open new bugs you can identify a relevant reason for this behaviour.

*questions*
Is the function "user talk page is *our* *own*" implemented correctly for the
case that a couple is using the same e-mail address but different user names in
the wiki? Will they get ENotifs's on user talk pages or not?

Thanks in advance for looking into this!

best regards reinhardt [[user:gangleri]]
