"E-Mail Notification" option is missing from Advanced Settings

Hi ,

Today i came accross a issue in which the user has some data in access db . Which he imported in Sharepoint as a list .

The user wants to send a notification to the user who is assigned to it .

I tried giving him the option of workflow , Alerts however he wanted something which was OOB and not the same .

He had the functionality working on a different list where he did not have access to.

So i checked and found that there was an option of Email - notification in the advanced settings of the list

This is what I found

Tasks, Project tasks, and Issue-tracking lists can send e-mail to people when items are assigned to them if outgoing mail is enabled.  Other lists can support the same functionality, but you'd have to do something custom.  You could create a notification workflow in SharePoint Designer to handle this.
