Browser and OS Version: Firefox on Arch

Steps to reproduce:

This could get annoying very soon...

So you want to get an email for all notifications?

No, I don't want to get any e-mails!

Ideally an option to, on notifications:

  • send an e-mail directly (current default)
  • batch notifications, maybe with other reminder e-mails at a set time/interval (daily)
  • don't send e-mails for notifications

I came here to search for this.
I don't want to get an email every time someone assigns a task to me.

Why don't you set VIKUNJA_MAILER_ENABLED = false ?
Because i do want to get emails about my account or if tasks are (over)due.

So having an option to select which notifications i can get via email would be great!
