At https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/ "Email Notifications" is set to "Send me email notifications", "Self Actions" to "Send me an email when I take an action", all options under "Maniphest Tasks" set to "Email". And yet no email notifications are received for self-subscriptions.
Description
Event Timeline
It's set to "Email" as I wrote earlier, sir. Actually, I got no notification of your subscription either! :-\\
There was no separate subscription action but adding a comment to this task. Does that mean you received no email notification about Danny's comment? Or that the email notification exists but did not mention the subscriber change?
I've got subscription changes from another bug, which Andre subscribed myself to.
Added TestMe ATM.
Actually there was. I've just checked my mailbox and found one of older subscriptions of myself:
Danny_B added a subscriber: Danny_B.

Are you 100% sure? Phabricator likes collapsing changes.

The email notification exists but did not mention the subscriber change.
Danny_B added a comment.
Can you check the "A task's subscribers change." field for its value?

I confirm, that no self-subscription mail has been delivered. Just tested on my susbscription to some task and waited for about 15 mins for possible delayed delivery.
I noticed the other day I got a email about a bug where someone else had subscribed, It only mentioned the herald change and no mention of the Subscribers change.
If I get it right this is nowadays "Email Notifications = Enable" and "Self Actions = Enable" under https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/user/self/page/emaildelivery/ , and the "Maniphest Tasks" section under https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/user/Malyacko/page/emailpreferences/ . I can confirm this.
This is expected: since https://secure.phabricator.com/D14853, we've explicitly hidden these stories from feed and mail under the rationale that they are universally uninteresting.
(When a transaction group has no stories which would appear in mail, we drop the mail.)
See also https://secure.phabricator.com/T8952 for a vaguely-related task upstream.
I'm going to boldly decline this per last comment. The current behavior has been in place for years now and we don't plan to maintain a downstream patch.
