Trello – Does Trello send email notifications

The Trello Glossary currently says, for Due Dates:

You can add or change a due date for a card by entering 'due mm/dd/[yy]yy' as a comment. A badge with the due date will appear on cards. A yellow badge means it's due tomorrow. A red badge means it's past due.

So, at least the overdue ones should stand out.

The Trello Development Board currently has several items relating to future improvements in Due dates.

• Due Dates v2
• Due dates not working properly

Edit - 06/10/2011

I see that Trello have announced the implementation of Due Dates:

In Due Dates v1, you could add a due date to a card by making a comment that says something like "Due 2011-12-04"

In Due Dates v2 (which has now been implemented), you can add due dates using an "Add Due Date" button. You'll also be able to add a due time. You can also remove due dates, and the "Is this item due soon/past due" logic has been improved.

We'll add notifications for upcoming due dates in a future version (Due Dates v3)

This is due for release in the next day or two, according to their Twitter account.

This is a common misunderstanding of the way Trello notifications work, not a bug. We only notify you on stuff you don't see. So if you keep a browser window open with Trello on it, you won't get notifications (for now).

Subscriptions to boards and cards, which is forthcoming, should address the need for email notification on new actions. For now, notifications only notify on stuff that happens while you're away.
