Hi Samir,

I believe that the action of Assigning an issue throws an Event of type Issue Assigned. If you go into the Notification Scheme used by your Project, select the Add operation on the line with the Issue Assigned event. Select Current Assignee from the next page, and voila! An email will be sent to the assignee whenever an Issue Assigned event is fired.

(Also, you will need to set up a Mail Server, from the General Settings menu of the Administration screen)

Kind regards,

Jamie

Does this actually work though? Because Jira only seems to send an email if the Assignee is changed from the "Current Assignee" to someone else.
