Change E-mail notification settings

Suppose I have one project with Task_A and Task_B.
Task_A has two subtasks named Subtask_1.1 and Subtask_1.2 and
Task_B has two subtasks with the same names - Subtask_1.1 and Subtask_1.2.

When I ask for an update of subtask 1.1 from task A, the team member's email
notification doesn't show subtask 1.1 mother task. Team member cannot see its
mother task in "my tasks" on PWA either. In this situation he can be confused
because he doesn't know if project manager is asking for an update to subtask
1.1 form task A ou subtask 1.1 from task B.

Is there a way to include the mother task on the email notification or on
"my tasks" PWA page?

Thanks in advance

No, this is a known issue but not something that MS are going to fix any time
soon. The best you can hope for is

1. Make the task names more explicit
2. In the My Tasks page, drill into the tasks to see the successor and
predecessor tasks.
