I have a few thoughts/suggestions for the email notifications.

1/ Can we have the choice of text vs html?
2/ Option to include a mini board of current position?
3/ Option to specify which sub-site the email comes from (I use chessatwork; notifications come from RHP) and which site the included link should go back to (either a choice of main sites or mobile site)
4/ Option to indicate if a conditional move matched, which one, and that it's not my turn to move after all.

None of these are urgent, but they'd make the notifications a lot more useful for me.

Thanks,

Dave

Two more:

Game names with apostrophes have the name incorrectly escaped (shows as backslash-apostrope) in the email text. Also appears this way in a few other places, such as the "print board" page.

Emailed moves could be written better, using "e4", "Nxc3", "Rh1" notation instead of "e2e4" "b1c3" "h8h1".
