This is a follow-up to MDL-72984. We discourage people from doing direct email contact and we'd prefer that they contact our Help Desk. To determine whether that would be appropriate, I drew up a list of places where the support email is either the sender or the recipient of email:
Direct uses of supportemail:
- Direct notification if inserting into the legacy log fails (
MDL-11893) - Site settings for Moodle Mobile
- Call to action if page display fails
- Contact on consent form for minors
- Site support popover
Via generate_email_signoff():
- Email to users whose accounts are set to nologin
- Email notifications from auth/oauth2 if you’ve linked your account
- Password change emails
- Email notifications if the account is locked
- Verification email when a badge is issued
- Email notifications for new account creation and password issued
- Email notifications for password reset
- Email notifications for password change
Via get_support_user():
- [TO] Accessibility notifications from Brickfield
- [FROM] Analytics insight
- [FROM] Account confirmation email for oauth2
- [FROM] Account locked out
- [TO] Unsafe email attachment attempt (comes up if you use a contrib plugin like Quickmail))
- [FROM] email change confirmation
This is an incongruous set of use cases. The simplest from our perspective would be defining a new email address for the popover.
