Enhancement purpose

Right now redeeming keys through ASF don't send an activation email (the one from Valve). Both Steam's website and client send this out. Perhaps one more option can be added that uses this alternative activation method that sends out an email as well.

Solution

E Sends email.

Why currently available solutions are not sufficient?

Not available.

Can you help us with this enhancement idea?

Somehow, I can test and offer feedback, but can't code

Additional info

No response

[JustArchi]

Requires reverse engineering, ASF currently uses CMsgClientRegisterKey which doesn't have any option like that. Perhaps CStore_RegisterCDKey_Request which I just found does - pending implementation and tests.

[JustArchi]

Confirmed, Steam client now uses CStore_RegisterCDKey_Request, we should move to it even if only for future bullet-proofing.

New request automatically sends e-mail upon activation, so switching to it will resolve this issue oob. It's not going to be configurable, old endpoint is deprecated and making it available (even if it'd be nice with something like SkipEmail) is not something ASF should support, so e-mails will be mandatory now.
