Description

I receive an e-mail from Phabricator.
The e-mail is about the issue T98498.
It tells me that a person has written a comment, and that a person is now subscribed to the issue.
The comment is interesting, but I don't care about the subscribing.

The subject of the e-mail contains [Changed Subscribers], but not [Commented]. The e-mail hides the (interesting) comment under the (uninteresting) subscribing. I could very well have trashed the e-mail without knowing about the comment.

In this case, please include [Commented] in the subject of the e-mail.

Thank you.

Nnemo

Nnemo renamed this task from In the subject of the Phabricator e-mail, say "Commented", not "Changed Subscribers" to In the Phabricator e-mail, say "[Commented]" in the subject instead of hiding the comment under the subscribing.May 8 2015, 5:31 AM

Nnemo set Security to None.

I change the title of the task.

Including [Changed Subscribers] in the subject is not a problem.

Forgetting [Commented] in the subject is a problem.

Let me correct something:
The person subscribed is not the author of the comment.
This may be the cause of the bug.

Could be, yes. It would be useful to check whether email and web notifications show the same problem for the same events, just to be sure.

The cause may be the same.

But the issues are different.

This issue is for e-mail.
This issue is not related to ignoring. If I don't ignore subscriptions, the hiding of the comment under the subscription is still a bug.

The explanation of current behavior can be found in https://secure.phabricator.com/T5253#62160.
(And historically, this issue was already brought up in T85#1264.)

Is this resolved?

Danny_B added a project: Upstream.May 23 2016, 6:02 PM

I think this is resolved, probably by T78257#2316198 - at least I have not seen this for a while.
Hence closing. Please reopen if this still happens (preferably with a testcase). Thanks!
