Notifications
Notifications associate events (both system and custom) to e-mail recipients. When an event is fired and picked up, e-mails will be sent out. Notification recipients are defined by notification types. For example, you can set it to only send e-mails to a specific user or all members from a given user group. You can add multiple notifications to a given event.
