In tables where we show rows and rows of information we used to give some meta information about the notification, or at least as much as we could give in the very limited space available. This information is now on the notifications page, so the information we show in these tables should just be whatever helps users identify the right message. I reckon that this is: - the content of the message for text messages - the subject for emails and letters This also makes these pages consistent with: - the inbound SMS page - the way the people’s inboxes work for their text messsages/Whatsapps/emails For consistency’s sake this makes the job page work the same way. It may be slightly less useful here because on the job page every message is sent from the same template, so will have broadly the same content.
