[Building Sakai] Announcements Email Notification Preferences

[Savitha Prakash]

Hi Ben,

The following line @AnnouncementAction.postOrSaveDraft (line 2952 in sakai
trunk) redirects to SiteEmailNotificationAnnc to send emails.

channel.commitMessage(msg, noti,
"org.sakaiproject.announcement.impl.SiteEmailNotificationAnnc");

In the above line, the variable noti contains the value of the notification
which is set @AnnouncementAction.postOrSaveDraft (line 2759), which will be,
I think 0, 1 or 2 for no, low or high notification. So by passing the value
of the noti as 0, after checking the user preference, should address your
requirement.
