cool. 8)

maybe I should subscribe to a topic to see it work. :lol:

I think it only sends it to admins. I'd set up a gmail account for that, because you're going to get flooded with emails

I've checked fastly when downloaded and as the First I can see it works good :) but I think it's not very good for moderating if you are a admin becouse you won't be able to catch up things and e-mail will get easily flooded. But, good work. It would be nice to see more of your work!
