 I noticed that some of my user's weren't getting @mention email
 notifications today and have done some testing.

 I have found that if you use an @mention further down a forum reply in
 BBPress for example, or at the end of a longer comment on a WP post that
 an @mention notification email is not sent.

 I have tested this on a vanilla install of WP 3.5.1/ BP 1.6.4/ BBPress
 2.2.4

 Steps to reproduce:

 Post the following text in a WP comment or BBPress forum post:

 1. @mention at the start - will receive email notification:

 @admin Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting
 industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever
 since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and
 scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five
 centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining
 essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of
 Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with
 desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of
 Lorem Ipsum.

 2. @mention much further down - resulting in NO email notification sent:

 Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.
 Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the
 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to

 unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset
 sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop
 publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem
 Ipsum. @admin check this out!

 It appears that any @mention that falls outside the excerpt that gets
 posted in the activity stream and also appears in the notification email
 itself won't get processed.

 Sometimes on my site I will refer to many people by @mention at various
 points in a post to make sure they get a notification, so it would be
 great to work out why this isn't working!

 Let me know if you need me to test as usual!
