Module Description
Notify is a lightweight module for sending plain text email notifications about new nodes and comments posted on a Drupal web site.

Users may subscribe to notifications about all new content, or only subscribe to specific content types.

Even if this feature is not configured for normal site users, it can be a useful feature for an administrator of a site to receive notification of new content submissions and comment posts.

The notifications are sent out in batches at a frequency determined by the administrator. The administrator also decides what content type(s) to make available for notification subscriptions.

Ordinary users can turn notifications on and off, select what content type(s) to subscribe to and whether to also be notified about comments attached to subscribed content types.

Notify Views Integration (D7 only) The Drupal 7 branch of the project contains a sub-module: Notify Views Integration, that tells the Views module about the Notify database so you can create listings of users by Notify subscriptions status for export or administration.

The sub-module requires Views and CTools.

Bulk e-mail handling The Drupal 7 branch of the project contained a built-in custom queue handler to split a batch over several cron run. This has been deprecated in the 2.0 branch. Instead, if you are sending out so many notifications that you experience time-out problems, install and configure Queue Mail to handle bulk e-mail.

Support Status Reported bugs for the Drupal 7 and 9/10 branches will be fixed in a timely manner (provided the bug report describes how to reproduce the problem at will).

Older versions are no longer supported, nor is Drupal 8.

Community support in the form of patches are very welcome for both the Drupal 7 and Drupal 9/10 branches. Bug reports with patches will be given priority. For QA, the project needs community support in the form of reviews of patches, development versions and releases.

The primary goal of the notify module is to remain a light-weight and simple alternative to the more comprehensive notification frameworks, (e.g.: Subscriptions/Notifications). This means that not all feature requests will be implemented, even if they are a good idea. Feature requests accompanied by patches are more likely to make it into a release.

The maintainer hopes that the community is willing to help out by answering & closing support requests.
