and I don't agree that it's silly, it would at least help me. Especially
as the dir assigned to me is post-notification, and the plugin works in
post_notification (underline!), ever since. I requested
post_notification and got post-notification, but didn't bother as by
that time everything was working fine and after that, I didn't get any
replies to my mail any more.
