Email notifications for meadia requested by all users

[sean-sullivan1]

I think I may misunderstand how the notification system works in Overseerr. I have my account with the "owner" role and all permissions enabled. I have enabled email notifications with these settings:

I want to receive notification emails when ANY user requests content that is auto approved. Am I missing something?

465 is depreciated. Use 587 without SSL enabled. Also check your logs for errors.

@samwiseg0 hey I’m still getting emails for the requests I make just not the requests my users make. Modifying smtp settings thanks.

Hi @sean-sullivan1! "Media Approved" e-mails are only sent to the user who submitted the request, as the email is intended to serve as a notification to them that their request was approved.

We are adding a new notification type for admins to receive notifications on automatically approved requests, however. You can follow #1137 for updates.
