Setting contact windows
When Alba is allowed to message you, in your local timezone.
Settings → Communication → Contact windows.
By default Alba can message you any time. Add windows to restrict to specific hours.
Each window is a from→to pair in HH:mm. You can add multiple. Times are interpreted in your local timezone.
Examples:
- 09:00 → 11:00 (mornings only)
- 09:00 → 11:00 + 15:00 → 17:00 (mornings + afternoons, lunch off)
- 22:00 → 06:00 (overnight only — useful for after-service review)
When the cron evaluates outside your contact windows, proposals are queued and dispatched at the start of your next window. Nothing is lost — just delayed to a more humane time.
Empty list = no restriction. The cron sends whenever it has news.
