Full wizard

Personal rules group events by your relationship to the work item:

  • Work items I'm assigned to - "New assignments" and "New comments" are pre-checked

  • Work items I've reported - "New comments" are pre-checked

  • Work items I'm watching - starts empty

  • Work items where I'm mentioned - "New assignments" and "New comments" are pre-checked

Each category can also be narrowed to specific statuses, and an "Upcoming due date" event is available under Assignee/Reporter, letting you pick how many days before the due date to be notified (1, 2, 3, 5, 7, or 14 - default 3).
