I just tested this with Discourse 2.9.0.beta3, discourse-assign v1.0.0, and a newly created admin account, but was unable to reproduce this issue.

Specifically, after being assigned a topic, the admin account received a notification immediately that the topic had been assigned to them - as expected. For this situation, the admin account was brand new (no changes to any notification or account settings), and the Assign plugin was setup with the default settings.

I also looked through the Assign plugin and account notification settings to see if there was anything in there that might be related, but the only two settings I found were for email notifications in the Assign plugin settings ( “remind assigns frequency” and the default setting for this is “Never”), and the “Frequency for receiving assigned topics reminders” in the Preferences → Notifications settings which I tested with different values (Originally set to “Never”) but the admin still received notifications about the assigned topic immediately regardless of this setting.

Like originally stated, perhaps there’s something in that particular admin’s settings somewhere that’s preventing them from getting notifications, or a way to reset notification settings? I’d be curious to know what’s causing this as well.

Hopefully this bit of additional information helps troubleshoot this further.
