+==========================================
+Custom notification settings for followers
+==========================================
+
+In standard Odoo, receiving mail notifications is an all or nothing affair.
+This module allows you users to decide per followed record if they want to
+receive emails or not. Further, they can choose to receive notification about
+their own messages.
+
+You can also set defaults for this settings on the subtype in question.
+
+Configuration
+=============
+
+When followers open their subscriptions, they will be offered the choice to
+override mail settings and to force being notified about their own messages.
+
+You can add defaults per message sub type for this settings in Settings /
+Technical / Email / Subtypes. Here, you also have the opportunity to apply
+those defaults to existing subscriptions. Note that this overrides all
+customizations your users already have done.
+
+Usage
