Cannot reproduce - my emails from Amazon have the subject "Your order of X" and contain a link to X.

It must vary by customer, none of my emails about my Amazon orders EVER contain any information about the items ordered, they just have a status and the order number.

I once talked to their customer service to ask how to stop getting the emails since they're basically entirely useless and they told me there's no way to do that.

Not only that; it seems even your chosen language has an impact.

The mails from Amazon.de in German do not contain any information about ordered items. From the same Amazon.de, to the same mail address, but in Czech, they do.

This sort of solution belongs in the article.

Hmm, must be customer specific then... my amazon.de mails contain the items, tracking number, etc... :-)

My order receipts have what I ordered but the shipment and delivery notifications no longer do.

I have:

- Your order of X (confirmation)

- Your order of X has been dispatched

- Arriving today: X

- Delivered: Order number N

Only the last does not contain the product name X.
