No obvious way to stop 'Unanswered questions' emails #796

Closed takluyver closed 5 years ago

takluyver commented 5 years ago

Having an account on ROS answers (running askbot 0.10.2), I started getting automatic emails with a list of unanswered questions.

Firstly, these emails don't have an 'unsubscribe' link anywhere that I can see. I expect any automated regular email to have this.

Secondly, when I go to the email alerts settings page on the site, none of the available settings clearly relate to the 'unanswered questions' email:

Looking at send_unanswered_question_reminders.py, I see it filters the list by user.get_tag_filtered_questions. So maybe setting the tag filter to 'only interesting tags' will stop this if there are no 'interesting' tags. But this isn't very obvious.

(I would also rather new automatic emails were opt-in rather than opt-out, even if there is an obvious way to opt out. But maybe that's up to the site administrators rather than the code.)
