Send Email Notifications for User Mentions PRO ENTERPRISE

Checklists allows you to @mention users in checklist items. If you are using Checklist Pro/Enterprise and enable the Send email notifications option, an email will be sent when a user is mentioned on a checklist item. The Send email notifications project setting will override the global setting.

Emails are sent when new items are added, when items are edited or when a template is applied to the Jira work item. Email notifications are not sent if a user is mentioned while editing the checklist in the editor or through the Checklist Text custom field. Note that currently there is now way for an individual user to unsubscribe from Checklists notifications.

To modify the email subject line, click into the text box and type the desired text. Click the checkmark to save your changes.
