Chatter email notification on each post

Hi Guys,
I have enabled chatter notification on each post to a group in the settings. But the problem is I get email only on commenting on the post, but not on new post. Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks,
Vetri

Hello,

You need to create a trigger on "FeedItem" object and on after insert you will send an email to required audiance. Here is small snippet of code: 
trigger FeedItemTrigger on FeedItem (after insert) {
    for(FeedItem fitem : Trigger.New) {
        //fitem.ParentId is the id of user who posted the feed
        //fitem.Title
        //fitem.body
    }
}

For more information like other fieles on FeedItem object; you can look at this: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api.meta/api/sforce_api_objects_feeditem.htm

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Sumit
