In our SP2010 lists, users who created e-mail alerts will not get notified when the list attachment (here: docx files) has been modified. This is the whether version is enabled or not.
Is this behavior intended, a bug or a mis-configuration in our farm? Maybe someone could test it in their farm:
- Create a list (Task list, custom list, etc.)
- Create notification for that list (All changes, immediate notification)
- Add a list item and attach a docx file
- Open list item and then the attachment
- Edit list attachment in MS Word
- Make a change to the file and Save
- Wait for a couple of minutes if you get an e-Mail regarding that last change
