Performance: If you notice that your site is very slow when submitting
|
| 26 |
new comments it is possible that the problem is with sending the mails.
|
| 27 |
One option is to use the Queue Mail module
|

COMPATIBILITY NOTE
|
| 31 |
------------------------
|
| 32 |
Comment Notify is not built to work
|
| 33 |
on sites where other mail related modules are installed (modules like Actions,
|
| 34 |
Notify, Subscriptions, and Organic Groups are popular examples). If you install
|
| 35 |
both Comment Notify and one of these other mail modules on your site in addition
|
| 36 |
to Comment Notify it may send duplicate messages and/or have user interface
|
| 37 |
elements that will appear to be duplicates and confuse your site visitors.
|
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
The suggested configuration in these instances is to separate Comment Notify and
|
| 40 |
whatever other mail module you have installed. Common ways to separate them are
|
| 41 |
by content type or user permissions.
