Dear maintainers,

is it possible to send out an email, when an Admin changes the email-address of another account? Right now the mail only gets sent out, when a (non-admin) user changes his email-address, but I would like to notify the user, when an Admin changes his address.

Thanks!

This would be fixed with this patch:

#2088291: More granular permission on email confirmation.

I agree this appears to be a duplicate of #2088291: More granular permission on email confirmation. which solves this problem as well.

As I re-read this it seems related, but not the same as 2088291 :)

It will be good if we integrate Admin User Email Change Notify post we resolve this feature request: #2016649: Send message after successful mail change

Post this, we can provide an option to administrators with notifying email change to the user under email field and take action accordingly.

Also, we will have to take care of the exact definition of "bypass email confirmation" user permission as currently, we are checking
user_access("bypass email confirmation") for the logged in user (in this case admin) and hence email_confirm module actually does not operate.

IMO is user (being it logged in user only) has access bypass email confirmation permission, we can check for email_confirm_confirmation_send_mails_after_change variable and proceed accordingly.

What are your views?
