Email notification preferences

YAWBDB lets users control which email notifications they receive.

Email preferences are available from the profile settings.

📍 Where to find preferences

Open:

Profile → Email Notifications

The page shows notification types relevant to your account, roles, and linked services.

🔔 Common notification types

Depending on your account, you may see preferences for:

• Account suspension or reinstatement
• Support ticket replies
• New chat messages
• Platform announcements
• Unban appeal updates
• New message reports
• New support tickets
• Discord report replies
• New Discord reports for staff
• Discord ticket replies
• New Discord tickets for staff
• Friend requests

🎭 Role-aware preferences

Some preferences only appear when they apply to you.

For example:

• Server moderators may see report or appeal notifications.
• Support staff may see support ticket notifications.
• Discord-linked accounts may see appeal update notifications.

📧 Chat message emails

New chat message emails may be rate-limited to avoid flooding your inbox.

For example, YAWBDB may send at most one email per conversation during a time window.

🔕 Opting out

You can disable notification types you do not want.

Changes apply to future emails.

Some important account or security emails may still be sent if they are required for safety or account management.

💡 Best practices

• Keep important security and staff notifications enabled.
• Disable noisy notifications if you actively use the panel.
• Enable email notifications if you are responsible for reports or tickets but are not always online.
• Review preferences after your role changes.

📧 Mailings & unsubscribe

Occasional product mailings (release news, important updates) are controlled by the Product news & mailings toggle, separate from event notifications. Every mailing also contains an Unsubscribe link in its footer — one click opts you out, no login needed, with an undo link if you clicked by mistake.
