Slow notification emails.

[bk]

Is it just me or since the update it takes 5-20 minutes to get the email notification of PM or replies? Not really an issue but I'm normally browsing on my phone and it's handy to see if anything pops up. But to wait a whole 5 minutes

Like I say, it's no biggy just wondered if it's a setting I've got wrong.

I think there was a change to the way the notification emails are handled... they basically get added to a queue and every 10 minutes the queue gets sent. Its to make better use of the server processing... it's less intensive to run one mail process for all notifications every 10 minutes than running a separate process for each notification.
