Bug Fix

Email alerts for new inbound emails are sending again

What’s Fixed

Since late June, the email alert for a newly received inbound email was queued
for sending but never picked up by a background worker, so it silently never
arrived. Nothing failed and nothing was reported — the message simply sat in a
queue that no worker was reading.

The queue those alerts are handed to is now named explicitly, so they are picked
up and sent as intended.

What changed

  • “New email from …” alert emails send again for inbound email received on a
    contact record.
  • The in-app alert (bell, live toast) and the text-message alert for the same
    event were routed correctly the whole time and are unchanged.
  • Other notification types — task assignments, lead assignments, first-to-claim,
    mentions, missed calls and the rest — were never affected; their alert emails
    have been sending normally throughout.
  • Team-inbox email alerts were also unaffected.

The underlying inbound emails themselves were always received and visible in the
app — only the alert email about them was affected.
