This is to let the author of the post know, that this pod is interested
in updates about this post.
The sending user is only used to verify that the participation was sent
from this pod, but lets use an admin/podmin account if available.

The limit was added in 2012 to prevent spam, but since the participants
need to be a mutual contact with the author nowadays, I don't think it's
a spam problem anymore.
Some people may remove their birthday date after the notification was
sent, which then breaks the notification page for other users. Let's
just display the date when the notification was created, and not display
the users updated birthday date. When users update from date A to B it
always looks weird anyway, when we display the same new date B twice on
different days, or display two different dates for the same user.
We could remove notifications when users change or remove their
birthday, but that would be way more complex and also we usually don't
remove notifications (not even for deleted posts).
