Enabling Assigned To emails in WSS v3 list definitions

While investigating how to enable AssignTo emails in a v3 list definition, one of my co-workers (Hello Mike Brown!) ran across the following list element attribute by exporting a list (to an stp file)
EmailAssignTo="TRUE"
this is a non-documented attribute, so use it at your own risk :)

Hello,
According to your post,
after I saved the list as template (to stp file), how can I add list elemnt (EmailAssignTo="TRUE") to the list?
Thank you.

That is a good question :)

Obviously the easiest thing to do would be to enable that functionality before you export the list as a template...

If that isn't an option you can try and open your stp file using something like winzip and then attempt to modify the list definition and then repackage your changes- that isn't something I have attempted to do personally though.
