I received an e-mail that notified me that one of my favorite artists submitted a picture. Needless to say, the picture explicitly violated my filter setting. Does the filter apply to e-mail or only when browsing?

Well they administrators obviously have no control over your email providers, so they can only control what they're sending really. If they were to fix it that is.

So it's broken (question mark). I know that they have control over what they send me, and that is what I am asking about.

We've actually known about this bug since April but have been unable to locate the cause. You're the second person to report it as a problem.

Hold it -- I think I've found something. Damn this is an obscure one....

A full technical explanation of the bug is beyond the scope of this topic, but it is sufficient to say that while the notifications routine [i]was[/i] successful in detecting if a submission exceeded the person's mature content, it proceeded to notify them anyway instead of skipping to the next user in the list.

Huh... that's strange. Can it be fixed?

Almost anything can be fixed once we've identified what causes it.

As it stands, submissions filed through the RC domain should respect the filters, although it is not yet the case with the WWW domain.
