**As** a current user
**I want to** be notified about the changes to the way notifications are handled, from individual emails in the past, to in-app notifications and daily email reminders in version 12.0,
**so that** I know where I can find all relevant updates and where I can configure my notification settings.
**Note**
The email visual/Figma uses the newer styling that has not yet been implemented for the other emails.
**Acceptance criteria**
* With the release of 12.0, every active user receives one email notifying them about changes to the notification system.
* Text: see below under "Email text"
* The email contains a link that leads to notification settings. (My account -> "Email reminders")
**Email text**
The following text is after <mention class="mention" data-id="5" data-type="user" data-text="@Birthe Lindenthal">@Birthe Lindenthal</mention>'s review and feedback:
> Subject: **Important changes to notifications with the release of 12.0**
>
> We are excited to announce the release of OpenProject 12.0. It's a major release that will hopefully significantly improve the way you use OpenProject.
>
> Starting with this release, we are introducing in-app notifications. From now on, you will receive notifications for updates to work packages directly in OpenProject. You can mark these notifications as read, reply to a comment or even directly modify work package attributes without leaving the notification center.
>
> This also means that we will no longer be using emails for notifications. We think the new notification center is a better place to view and act upon these updates. Nevertheless, if you would like continue receiving updates via email, you can choose to receive daily email reminders at particular times of your choosing.
>
> _Please make sure to verify your new default notification settings, and set your preferences for notifications and email reminders via your account settings. You can do this through the “Change email settings” button bellow._
>
> We hope you find in-app notifications useful and that they makes you even more productive.
>
> Sincerely,
> The OpenProject team
