Is it possible to send an email alert when a field of a list is empty ?

I've tried the following :

  • Create a custom list, add a field named "TestField"
  • Create a personal view named "TestView", filter : Show when column "TestField" is equal to "" (leave the box empty)
  • Create an alert, immediate email when items appearing in "TestView" are modified
  • Create an item with both fields filled
  • Create an item with only title filled

Now you should receive two alert emails, but in the view "TestView" there is only one item. Is it a bug ?
