Please change e-mails about @Everyone posts to not lie

Apollo38390

When someone (typically the "server" owner) posts to @Everyone, Discord sends out (by default) a notification e-mail to each single user claiming that "celebrity1234 mentioned you in celebrity1234".  Which is clearly not true.  They merely mentioned @Everyone and Discord software is changing @Everyone to "you", thus changing a truth into a lie and a relevant notification into meaningless spam.

Furthermore these are often notifications of streams starting soon, and logging into Discord to find out wastes precious time, and making an e-mail useless to see days later.

Please stop doing that.  Either don't send out mass e-mails for @Everyone posts, or make sure the automatic e-mail text for such posts is actually truthful and useful.  Something like

At 21:02 UTC celebrity1234 announced: "@Everyone, Extra stream starts in 5 minutes"

For now, I have resorted to disabling @Everyone notifications in general, not just by e-mail.

    You can disable "Communication emails" in "Notifications" in User Settings, I hope I helped you to solve your issue.

    I don't want to disable all notification e-mails.

    I don't want to disable all notifications about "@ EveryOne" posts (which I did as a bad workaround).

    I want the e-mails about "@ EveryOne" posts to be worth receiving in my e-mail inbox, because the current ones are bad garbage, as explained.
