Confirmed. The OCB default setting of email_notification_send does not work for very common email scenario's. As my earlier posting in this thread indicates, I'm very emotional about the way that EDI mails were sent out in OpenERP 6.1 but I think the OBC default defeats the purpose of trying to get a sane email flow in 7.0. For what it's worth, it does seem to me that OpenERP 7.0 refrains from sending out automatic emails, and the distinction between messages and notes on the chatter gives the appropriate control over whether something is mailed out.
So I'm sorry Daniel if this kneejerk initiative by me and Camp2camp in OCB caused you and other people any pain. It did help me sleep at night but I guess that was not worth it. As for opt_out, the code that mentions this field does not seem to support your conclusions but with the whole debate on deviations in OCB it does look to me like a good candidate to have in a community module. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenERP Indian Team, which is subscribed to OpenERP Addons. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1163832 Title: Partner settings should default to opt-out for email messages Status in OpenERP Community Backports (Addons): Fix Released Status in OpenERP Community Backports (Addons) 7.0 series: Fix Released Status in OpenERP Addons (modules): Opinion Bug description: OpenERP basically has two kinds of email mechanisms: - Automatic emails - Mass mails Usability wise, the automatic emails should not be send by default. Therefore, the 'notification_email_send' setting should default to 'none'. Legally, mass mails can not be send without explicit permission from the recipient (at least in NL). Therefore, the 'opt_out' setting should default to True.
