We now optionally add a Variable Email Return Path to every email we send.
This allows us to cleanly handle email bounces, which in turn will improve
deliverability.
We no longer include previous replies as "context", instead
we include and excerpt of the post being replied to at the bottom
of notifications, this information was previously missing.
Users may opt in to emailing previous replies if they wish
or opt out of "in-reply-to" which makes sense in some email clients that
are smarter about displaying a tree of replies.
- always means we always send previous replies with every email
- never means we do not
- "unless previously sent" ... is the default, in which we only email you each reply once
The default_email_previous_replies site setting can control this toggle
This commit adds a new tracking table that lets us know
- When a migration ran
- What version Discourse was at
- How long it took
- What version Rails was at
The built in tracking in Rails is very limited, does not track this info
As it stands we load up user records quite frequently on the topic pages,
this in turn pulls all the columns for the users being selected, just to
discard them after they are loaded
New structure keeps all options in a discrete table, this is better organised
and allows us to easily add more column without worrying about bloating the
user table
UX: improve messaging so notifications list is far more stable
PERF: improve performance of notifcation lookup queries
- Add feature "SetTransientHeader" that allows shipping info to server
in the next Ajax request
- remove local storage hack used for notifications
- amend lookupStale to return hydrated objects, move logic into store
- stop magically clearing various notifications (likes, invitee accepted, group_summary, granted badge)
