Automail for unregistered authors

Notifications are also available to unregistered authors of items, i.e., those authors who do not have an account in the Allegra system.

Allegra can be set up to accept email submissions from authors who do not have an account in the Allegra system. Such authors can also be informed about the status of their items.

The notification scheme and the notification triggers are taken over by the “guest” account. Thus, notifications to unregistered authors are treated as if the “guest” user had created the associated item, with the difference that the author’s email is used for the notifications and not the email of the “guest” user.
