25-Aug-2026 — keep notify recipients personal and shorten long role sender addresses ref #364
build 853 — commit b6393a9
What's new
The notify list on Mail Settings was offering committee role addresses (and other addresses on the group's own domain) as if they were people to email when new inbox mail arrived. Choosing those would send the notification back into the shared inbox. That list now only offers personal addresses, you can add more than one by typing and pressing Enter, and the field matches the size of the radios around it.
Long committee role titles that list several jobs in one description produced email addresses that mail providers reject, because the part before @ was too long. The role address now uses the first part of the title (before a comma, or a similar break), so each role still has a unique, valid address and Create Senders can register it.
At a glance
- Addresses on the group's domain, including leftover committee member records such as secretary@, no longer appear in Add people to notify and cannot be typed in.
- Profile Email Subscriptions no longer offers Notify me when the member address is on the group domain; use a personal address instead.
- Type a complete personal address and press Enter to add it. Existing addresses stay on the list, and the type-in box clears so you can add another.
- The notify picker type size matches the surrounding radios and the Same recipients dropdown.
- A long role title such as several jobs after a comma uses only the first part for the role email, so the part before @ stays within 64 characters.
- If two roles would share that first part, the second address is made unique from the member's name.
- Create Senders no longer sends an over-long address to Brevo; typed extras are checked the same way.
