Comment (by strk):
I wonder if it's been myself wiping out the session attributes while
fighting spammers. Cannot exclude that (but I guess I could look at the
backups to verify). The other possibility is that session attributes are
removed when they do not have a match in the session itself (which is more
likely that I could have removed, thinking it would hold no important
info). I'll try the latter.
In any case, it doesn't seem nice to require entering preferences in each
and every instance.
We're the same community here, using a single sign-on, so we should really
aim at making this automatic. Besides, judging from the actual values in
those attribute tables, chances are spammers are using notifications as a
way to spam arbitrary email addresses, by writing them into the session
preference.
For configuration, see https://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracNotification
(but please dont' configure your instances independently, we want to use
the global config as much as possible).
