after_email callback ran even though the if check returns false

[weizheheng]

Hi, I would like to ask is it by design that the after_email callback still get runs even though no email has been sent?

My current use case:

class ReturnOrders::AfterSubmitNotification < Noticed::Base
  deliver_by :email, mailer: "ReturnOrderMailer", method: :submitted_for_customer, if: :notification_enabled?

  after_email :record_notification_activity

  private

  def record_notification_activity
    NotificationActivity.create()
  end

  def notification_enabled?
    notification.enabled?
  end
end

Expectation

1. If the notification is disabled, no email should be sent.
2. It should not hit the after_email callback so no NotificationActivity is created.

Actual

1. If the notification is disabled, no email is sent.
2. However, it still hit the after_email which creates the NotificationActivity even though no email has been sent.

Question

1. Is the after_email callback going to get called no matter the email is sent or not?
2. Any suggestions to handle my use case above? Should I just do the same if check for the after_email callback?

after_email :record_notification_activity, if: :notification_enabled?
