New Task (Learner)
To user assigned the task.
For confirmed users, it’s sent immediately when the task is issued.
For un-confirmed users, it’s sent out immediately once they ‘confirm’ (i.e. sign in for first time).
Unless ‘skip new joiner task notifications’ is enabled in the back end (which it is - to prevent backlog of task emails pinging out from what we imported, but this can be turned back on, just let me know).
This new task notification can also be disabled, by selecting ‘skip new task email’ on individual tasks you create.
