Brian, I did not say it explicitly says there is email notification. It implies it by the subscriptions list of subscribed issues under my account / subscriptions. Also the delete, pause, and continue with subscription controls. In the home page, it shows a letter icon that is enabled on your issues that are subscribed. This all implies that email notification is built-in.
If it is not enabled for anyone, then that solves the mystery.
