Sending an e-mail to questioner when question is answered

Issue Summary

It would be very nice if the one asking the question would be sent the answer by e-mail, if an e-mail address was known (either a registered user or the name given by an anonymous user is actually an e-mail address). This would save users from having to check back all the time.

Likewise, I'd like to see what others have requested: a notification being sent to the user responsible to answer "questions" when one is submitted.

Thanks.

I'm looking to address both of these issues via an optional question_notify submodule in v2.x

Version:5.x-1.4» 6.x-1.x-dev

possibly mark this issue as duplicate?

#218182: Notification When User Submits Question

No, that's not a duplicate.
That issue is about notifying a site admin when a question is submitted.
This issue is about notifying a user when a question is answered.

Both of these features are in the works. They'll be added to the 7.x branch first, and then possibly backported.

Excellent, thanks for the clarification!
