In [FEATURE: separate chat emails from regular emails by dbattersby · Pull Request #36018 · discourse/discourse · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/36018#event-20916607917) the chat email preference was moved from the chat tab to the emails tab.

But the link in the footer of the email still takes you to the chat tab

Maybe it makes sense to remove “frequency” from the text in the footer, too. I expected different options than “never” and “only when away” to configure a frequency (which would be a great feature too).
