    Default Another email notification idea/whinge

    LiveJournal.com's emails are kind of neat. Whenever someone replies to a post or comment you've made there, you get an email saying who wrote it, and also what they wrote. Personally, I reckon this would be a nice idea here. For PM and thread replies, it'd be handy to know in advance whether it's worthwhile logging on to see what someone's message or reply is saying. Surely I'm not the only one who gets a little annoyed to get notification that someone's replied to an important thread, then you log in and find that their post just says "lol jk" or something similarly useless? It's even more of a pain when you're paying 8c per megabyte for internet traffic.

    So yeah... email notifications which include what has been said, as well as who said it, would be really very nice.

    How do you enable that in LiveJournal? I tried to figure it out once, but the person I asked is notoriously vague...

    I think it's possible, but I lack the expertise.

    I'm going to try to do my Server cert without going on LOA again, too, so involved research projects are a little beyond me at the moment, too

    Find a way to do it and I'll set it up. I sure know I'm not anymore up for a hunt then Mark is.

    I'm indifferent to this proposal.
