Subject line of notification emails from CES

Newcomers to CookEatShare may misunderstand the email notices they get, as I did when I was new to the site. Say we get an email notice and in the subject line it announces a recipe just posted by a chef we follow. If it's a recipe we may not be interested in, we might delete the whole email without opening it and realizing there are probably several updates from chefs we follow, not just that one alone. It might be better to put in the subject line "Updates from chefs you follow..." rather than to list one recipe name, that might or might not appeal to us.

Topic kind should be set
Topic subject cannot be empty
Topic message cannot be empty
or Cancel

Re: Subject line of notification emails from CES

Thanks for the feedback Salad Foodie. I'll noodle on that. The advantage of having a recipe name in the title is that you at least know there are recipes...but I understand that it may not be clear that this is a digest of all the recipes from that day or week (depending on your settings) not just the one recipe. Thanks for raising this!
