Hi all,

I get two suggestions from this discussion thread:

1. To reduce the emails, only keep "created" and "commented" event
notifications (According to [1], we have "closed" and "Generic Event" event
notifications now).
2. To make the title more readable, change the template of the subject of
the notification email, e.g., from "[JIRA][EVENT TYPE](IOTDB-NUMBER) title"
to "title [JIRA][EVENT TYPE](IoTDB-NUMBER)". It is possible according to
[2].

Both two changes require INFRA's help.
If there is no dissenting opinion, I can create an issue to INFRA JIRA.

If the INFRA can not change the title template, there is another solution:
a. JIRA sends notifications to a new mailing list; b. a robot subscribes
the mailing list and once it receives a new mail, it sends it to dev@
mailing list with a better title format.
