Hi all,
I have my 3.2 site up and running nicely. The only thing missing are some email notification triggers.

All I want is a notification which users can select (possibly when signing up) that will emails users when anything new is added to the site.

I tried adding a workflow called MailUpdate then I went to triggers but under "content publish after" the only thing that appeared in the dropdown box is "no workflow". My new workflow is not selectable.

Under notification all I get is "Run" and "Spawn" neither of those do anything for me yet. Is workflow and trigger the right place to focus my attention or is my problem with the notification settings?

I don't think what I am trying to do should be that difficult. If anyone has something like this working some advice would be much appreciated.
