Enable email notifications for Tasks list in SharePoint 2013
In SharePoint 2013 you will find that the option to enable email notification for Tasks list is no longer there. It used to be under List Settings > Advanced Settings > Send e-mail when ownership is assigned? (Yes/No). It is still there for Issues list in SharePoint 2013 however.
The good news is you can still enable it for Tasks list in SharePoint 2013, and it still works. The only thing is you’ll need to use PowerShell.
