How can I test if customers are receiving email notifications when they participate in a thread or are mentioned? Are there specific settings I need to check or configure to ensure this is working correctly?

When you change the default of a preference, such as default email level, you can choose whether this should also apply to existing users, but when a user has changed it themselves, their choice is not overwritten. Example: The default email level is “only when away”. User1 changes it to “never”. …

I think you may be able to go to Admin > Email > Settings, input an email address and send a test email.

Is it possible to set all users’ preferences at once from the admin panel, or is there another method to do this?

Thankyou so much everyone. :slight_smile:

I think the place I’d start would be checking the email logs for sent and skipped, as well as particular users’ email preferences.
