Summary	0012648: Variable to enable/disable mail when a user added to the monitoring list
Description	Now if a user adds 10 people to the monitoring list then the first one is pretty unlucky since he receives 10 mails (for himself and for each and every person added). This is really inconvenient. A proper solution could be if only the person who added to the monitoring list would be notified. I guess the current solution makes sense is some of the situation, so maybe it can be a global varible like: $g_send_email_when_added_to_monitor = NONE / SELF / ALL NONE means no notification is sent, ALL means the current solution, SELF means only email is sent to the person who is added to the certain issue.

istvanb 2011-01-04 12:56 reporter ~0027794	This could be a convenient solution, however wont solve the problem of having users who start to monitor the issue lately. But definitely would be nice having a selection box like what we have when we assign the credentials to a certain project.
