Can we have digest emails rather than an email for every case edit?

From time to time, we edit multiple cases at once (eg: change from one milestone to another). Currently, when another user edits multiple cases at the same time which are all assigned to me, I receive an e-mail for each case separately even though the change was the same for all of them. I want to receive a single e-mail that tells me about that single change.

For example: Someone changed 20 of my cases from one milestone to the next. Instead of receiving 20 e-mails letting me know, I would like to get a single e-mail that tells me that the specific change was made to "the following 20 cases" and then see a list of the cases.

Generally, looking at the Date and Time the 20 e-mails arrived usually shows me which ones to ignore.

I did find this question similar: (time-based digest emails) but I feel that my request is not quite the same as I don't want some time-delay on the e-mail. I want an "always on" option that would happen on a multiple-case-edit.

I don't feel the "digest emails" case completely covers this. For instance I'd like to received 1 email per edit i.e. if users change 4 case individually then send me 4 notifications...if they change 4 at once send 1 notification. Then separate from this I may wish to see all notification in the past X minutes grouped into a single email. – Andy Apr 23 2012 at 2:45

Thank you for the feedback! I have added your suggestions and use case to the case we have open for the other question.

I would really like to see this. There can be quite a bit of email pollution generated during bulk-edits (we just experienced it). A single summary email would be much better. – Greg Saven Feb 1 2011 at 17:55
Ditto on requesting this. I feel this has become problematic for us as there is such a deluge of emails from FogBugz that people don't read any of them very thoroughly anymore. There are simply so many that they have become a burden rather than useful. A way of combining batches would be great - the way Outlook lumps multiple emails into one when you forward a group is very effective. – Stefan Mohr Mar 7 2011 at 18:43
