are the programmers still tweaking this enhancement?

i ask because though i have notifications currently turned Off, i did receive an e-bot telling me i had an IM waiting for me...  i should add that i only received one notification, but actually had 3 IMs from 2 different people.  the e-bot was generated for one of the two IMs sent by the same person, one of which was to join their Friends List.  i didn't bother opening the e-bot email [which i should have i guess], so i don't know if it was the Friends List IM that generated the e-bot or the other IM from the person...

if it happens again, i'll try to get more info on it for you & the programmers, Stacey...
