Web notifications are delivered instantly without any delays. It is possible enable sound for the notifications to attract attention of the user.
To configure email notifications you need to add your SMTP configuration to your user attributes.
Tips:
Some SMTP servers require "From" field even if authorization is used. You need to set mail.smtp.from parameter to do that.
If you want to use Gmail service, you need generate application password or allow "less secure apps" in Gmail account settings.
Example SMTP parameters:
mail.smtp.host: smtp.gmail.com mail.smtp.port: 465 mail.smtp.ssl.enable: true mail.smtp.from: biketrax@gmail.com mail.smtp.auth: true mail.smtp.username: biketrax@gmail.com mail.smtp.password: YOUR_PASSWORD
