In Azure DevOps Server 2022, all email notifications (such as assignment and work item updates) are working fine, but @mention (tagging) notifications are not being sent. How can I resolve this issue?
Expecting that when a user tags (@mentions) someone in a work item or discussion, an email notification would be sent to the mentioned person

Reset to default 1According to the description in the documentation "Use @mentions in discussions", check the following things.
The
@mention
notification is available for the following areas:- Work item discussions or any rich-text fields
- Pull request discussions
- Commit comments
- Changeset or shelveset comments
- Wiki page comments
Don't copy and paste @mention users. This might not be able to trigger the notification. You should manually enter
@
and user identity in the comments to trigger the notification every time.
