    Description

      Currently email notifications contain rendered pages as they looked right after the change that triggered the notification was submitted.

      This is not very helpful because if a space admin is watching a space, (s)he has to click on "(View changes)" link in each email to see what has actually changed.

      It would be much better if each user could set in Email Preferences if he wants to receive diffs or pages rendered in usual way.

      The diff should use the same format as diffpages.action e.g. http://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/diffpages.action?pageId=151144&originalId=144452

      If user wants to receive emails in text format, the diff should have format similar to unix diff command.
