Hello Daniel,

Regarding item (#1), we hit the same problem last week: when creating an
e-mail in OpenERP and typing a new e-mail address, a new partner is
created with notification_email_send = 'none', and the mail is never
sent. This is unexepected for the user.

Regarding item (#2), I'm not sure the problem you see is related to the
opt_out field, since it is unused in default addons (there is even a
comment in res_partner/email_template which says "This field is unused
by default"). Do you know which module could be using it?

Nevertheless, I agree with you that this change should be reverted in
OCB and moved to a usability module. There could be alternatives
implementations, such as not adding customers to the followers by
default.

Title:
  Partner settings should default to opt-out for email messages

Bug description:
  OpenERP basically has two kinds of email mechanisms:

  - Automatic emails
  - Mass mails

  Usability wise, the automatic emails should not be send by default.
  Therefore, the 'notification_email_send' setting should default to
  'none'.

  Legally, mass mails can not be send without explicit permission from
  the recipient (at least in NL). Therefore, the 'opt_out' setting
  should default to True.
