We could use a repro! 😃

@JammyDodger and I have tried to reproduce the sending email notifications by editing category and tag data on topics, and have not been able to make it happen.

We’ve tried with the following settings enabled and disabled:

- `disable category edit notifications`
- `disable tags edit notifications`

Anyone have steps for reproducing this behavior? 🔎
