Dear Albert ARIBAUD,

Note: I am posting this to the list because we're only starting using patchwork, so maybe we should share our experience for the moment; I don't know yet what patchwork action is worthy of a post on the list and what is not. For all I know, maybe patchwork itself is going to post something right after I set the "not applicable" status...
No, I don't think so. Patchwork does not send any e-mails by itself. When you change the state to "Changes Required" or "Not Applicable" or such you are supposed to post a followup on the mailinglist and inform the submitter of your action. Patchwork does not replace the mailing list, it just helps keeping an overview over the patches, and who is doing what.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
