Not a bug For watched threads without e-mail notification, alerts do not appear

[grahamperrin]

Affected version

Maybe 2.2.5

My preferences are set to receive alerts:

– however when I opt to watch a thread without e-mail notification, it seems that the end result is (also) no alert, when someone replies to a watched thread.

I see this 2019 thread XF 2.0 - Watched threads not working? | XenForo community but I'm not aware of the red alert that's described in the reply.

Also this 2021 thread from @Brad L XF 2.2 - Thread Alerts - Explanation Needed | XenForo community however I don't suspect an issue with explanations; the preferences pictured above are clear and simple.

For test purposes:
