Description

Description:

I have notifications after all messages set up on my Windows version of RocketChat. Despite that, I don't get notifications about messages appearing

Steps to reproduce:
  1. myAccount
  2. Desktop notifications for all messages
  3. Save changes
Expected behavior:

I'd expect to get notifications after all messages sent to all the channels I am in. The only exception from that general rule is that I set up some exception (do not notify) in any particular conversation.

Actual behavior:

I don't get info about new messages in a channel if I am not mentioned (by name or "here"/"all").

Server Setup Information:
  • Version of Rocket.Chat Server:
  • Operating System: Windows
  • App version: 2.11.0

Research direction

No source files or tests are named. Reproduce the notification settings flow in the Windows app version 2.11.0, then trace the desktop notification behavior for channel messages that do not mention the user. Done means notifications appear for all messages except conversations with explicit do-not-notify exceptions.
