Email Delivery & In-App Notifications

How email preferences and dashboard notifications work together.

Two separate channels

In-app notifications record important platform movement. Email can provide an additional delivery channel, but an email failure does not reverse the underlying workflow action.

Preferences

Eligible contributors can review email-delivery status and use unsubscribe or resubscribe controls in Settings. These controls do not delete in-app notifications or change an article's status.

Where to verify an action

Use the relevant dashboard page as the source of truth. For article movement, confirm the current state in Submissions even when an expected email is delayed.
