I don't know that this is a "bug", but it certainly feels like one.

I just got an e-mail notification about my question being moved to a more appropriate site.

Such notifications can be good, but:

  • It was moved yesterday.
  • I have already looked at the question on the second site yesterday.

So, why tell me about it:

  • today rather than yesterday when it might have been useful to be told?
  • or at all, since I'm obviously already aware of it?

    Can you post a screenshot of the email without any identifying information? It might help us identify which email you're talking about. :)

    @Catija. I've added the message, its "Visit question" link, and part of its mail header. Jun 7, 2022 at 23:16
  • @Catija, I just noticed that the mail suggests that I "join Stack Overflow". Perhaps the bug is that it doesn't realize that I am already a member? Jun 7, 2022 at 23:23

    @RayButterworth It's static text. It always displays the same line to every person.

    The email probably isn't aware of whether you saw the notification or not but I'm curious why it was delayed. I see that you have emails set to daily but I don't think this one should be impacted by that setting. I'd have to get a developer to check and explain the proper timing, probably.
