Ah, I may imagine how your reaction would be in my case :) I have a
number of bots, of which some don't have bot flags (because it is just
an account, because it is not a bot which should have a bot flag or
because it has bot flags just partially). So, until now, I've got one
email for myself (even thou I voted) and three for my bots :)

That means that automatic emails about voting should be fixed:
* We should have a possibility to connect accounts. My bot is my
account and I would like to manipulate with all of my data from one
interface, not by logging out from one account and logging in to
another.
* Voters who already voted shouldn't get that message.
* Voters should be able to opt-out from this kind of messages for the
next elections, referendums etc.
