= Anonymous Watchers plug-in

Anonymous Watchers plug-in:

• Allows to add any emails as watchers in Redmine. Open an issue, click 'Add watchers' and you will see additional email field.

• Allows to subscribe to/unsubscribe from Redmine events anonymously as regular users do. Just click Watch/Unwatch on desired item as anonymous user and then enter your email.

• Adds more events to subscribe. You can now subscribe anonymously or as regular user to: all issues, all documents, all files, all news.

• When creating issues from mails, it adds non-member emails to watchers automatically (exceptions can be configured).
