 Replying to [comment:10 nacin]:
 > This is for wp_notify_postauthor(), which is only sent on published
 comments. As long as the author can still read the post — and a cap check
 exists for that — they should still receive the notification. Why not?
 They still authored the post, and they can still reply, after all.

 I agree to your reasoning. However, I think it's mandatory that the said
 user can opt out for email notifications (which is going to be complicated
 since he's no longer a user)
