New Software Bulletin Notification

Hi,

Does this default notification work for anybody?

I've had it enabled since day one, and have never received an email saying there are new bulletins to download.

All other Notifications work correctly, so this is not an email issue.

Come to think of it..

In all my setups of Patch 6, I don't think I've ever seen this notification policy return an email.

I"ve always subscribed to Altiris KB21897 (for v6) and the new Altiris KB46252 (for v7)  to get that notification.
