Description

IIRC it did so in the past. I doubt it got changed due to the removal of that post-signup screen.

I think this is resolved? I tried signing up with a new account at Arwiki and got a welcome message from a bot-account that uses the settings detailed for this extension, and it triggered the small yellow "new message" string.

Cannot reproduce either. Closing per last comment.

If this still happens, please provide steps to reproduce (e.g. which website).
