"New 1Password sign-in from Safari" email EVERY time I start Safari

To protect my privacy I use Cookie to automatically clear cookies when I quit Safari.

However, with 1Password 8 this means I get a "New 1Password sign-in from Safari" email EVERY time I start Safari...

This is SUPER annoying (in particular because I use Pushover to get a push notification for such email...) :cry:

Please fix (it worked fine in 1Password 7).

    Hey @riffraf / @gilles / XIII:

    The extension sign in for Safari is separate from marking 1Password.com as favorites. To be 100% clear, only the account holder should be receiving the email, so if you're signed into other individual's 1Password accounts, that would trigger the sign in email.

    I've done some checking, and by default Cookie shouldn't be removing 1Password for Safari's database, which is what triggers a fresh sign in, however if you've allowed Cookie to delete extension preferences, that would likely be the cause of the trouble. When 1Password for Safari has the database deleted, it will start as a fresh "sign in" the next time, triggering the notification email. Open Cookie, select Safari, and scroll to the Safari row in the sites list, and ensure that it is marked as a favorite. Let me know how you all get on with that.

    I too use cookie, but have marked 1password.com as a favorite. I - and others whose vaults I share - nonetheless continue to repeatedly get these irksome "new sign-in" messages. Is there a fix?

    Thanks,

    I did not get one today...

    However, I did also not get one when I logged in on the web (<account>.1password.com).

    Did you remove this functionality?

    Makes me also wonder about 1Password security…

    Yes this is the problem with the Cookie app

    at least if we knew which cookie needs to be identify as "favorites", (not to be deleted), so we do not get those emails

    the only way I found is "not to use Cookie app" at all, yes this is annoying
