At the same time, if you're using the "quota almost exceeded" notification emails, it will check each user whose quota has just been changed and send them a notification if they're near the threshold. The first part of this works fine. It does indeed update the quota for members of the changed institution, and nobody else. But there's a bug in the second part, that sends out the notifications. Instead of only checking the users in the institution, it checks *every* user in the site, and sends a notification to any of them who are near the threshold for the changed institution. This is not only annoying to users who aren't in the institution, but also confusing, because the email will tell them that their quota is the size of the changed institution's quota, when in fact their quota has not changed. To replicate: 1. Clean Mahara install 2. Log in as admin 3. Upload a 1MB file into your File -> Contents area 4. Create an institution. Save the institution. 5. Click the "edit" link for the institution. 6. Set "Default quota" to 100 Kilobytes. 7. Set "Update user quotas" to "On" 8. Click "Submit" Expected result: The admin user should not receive a notification, because they're not in that institution and their quota has not changed. Actual result: The admin user receives a notification about being over their quota, but their quota has not actually changed from the default 50MB.
