Description

The new email features in 1.7.x are a welcome addition, but they cause a fairly serious issue for me - I no longer receive all the Puppet errror reports. The new approach means that only owners of VMs receive the error emails, which in my environment is developers. I don't want them to receive the notifications, but I do want our Operations team to receive them.

Could an option be added under 'My account > Mail Preferences' to receive all Puppet error reports? Or alternatively have another option in the 'Puppet error state' dropdown so the list of options would look like this:

No emails
Subscribe to my hosts
Subscribe to all hosts

Thanks,

Andy

refs #9470 - set :limit on column, fix MailNotification initializer

MailNotification.new failed unless it had a Hash argument, hence the
factory had been changed from default behaviour. It also then ignored
all attributes except a given few listed in initialize_with.
