Move them to the top of email notifications? Separate email notifications, possibly sent faster? Bold/colored notifications?

  • Subject could begin with "5 @mentions"
  • Highlight @username occurrences of your username within messages
    • This would be good in general in Submessage view too
  • Reply to your message could also be distinguished somehow, e.g. an icon?
  • In general, maybe mention parent post too, and add icon to that if authored by you?
  • Highlights section with:
    • "Here are your 5 @mentions:" followed by bulleted list of @mentions, titles, by, few words of context around @mention (aim for single line)
    • Ditto for replies to your parent posts
    • These should probably override your "subscribe" features, i.e., get notified about them even if not subscribed to thread (but not if email notifications are turned off)
    • Link to Coauthor
    • Could also try [#] link within email
    • Emoji responses to your own messages
  • Maybe also an index of thread titles that link within email to relevant updates (like MAA digest); eventually could toggle off the detailed updates

Need to be a bit careful because we use at-mentioning for both authorship, and occasionally to address people. We really want to target the latter, but not sure how to distinguish between the two currently. #503 hopefully largely separates the two, going forward.
