I’m having some trouble understanding the outgoing email options. Basically, I don’t want any outgoing emails to be sent that contain post content (i.e. if someone has replied to a topic) and probably I’d rather nobody get email when they receive a PM either (although that would be acceptable). I f…

Got it, as the administrator, is there any way to make that the default? Or do I need to impersonate each user and disable those email settings (with the knowledge they can always reenable them…)? We are only going to have a minimal # of users at a time so that’s not a terrible burden, the worse pr…

Sorry, can you expand on why you want this stuff permanently disabled? As an admin you can set the defaults, but as it stands there is no global disable switch.

Yes, we are using a Discourse site for sort of an online “focus group.” To the extent possible, we don’t want content from the site to be emailed out to users, with the privacy of the users in mind (the content is itself not “secret” or anything). Obviously, any user can copy and paste stuff out of…

I think one of the reason we do not want to keep sending hundreds or thousands of email for a very active website to a single person.

[image] I am running a secure site where we don’t want users to get notified if there are content that is flagged. Is there a way to prevent this? We still want to use digest emails, but ideally notification of replies/ likes emails have zero content.

It would require custom work and careful specification if we were to enable digests in private email mode. Are you noticing a content leak during flags when “private email” is enabled? if so we have a bug that needs fixing.

I am from the same organisation as @rachel-statsnz so we share the same challenges…we really want to prevent content leaks from our gated site, but at the same time email notifications can facilitate user participation. Regarding the suggestion from our Dear Coding Horror on this subject: Sort of,…

So sorry @Nesha , can we take this back a step. Did you enable private email on your instance? This is a global setting, users have no fidelity to override it.

Sort of, you can change the user preference default for email to all off. Then all new (but not existing…) users will have email notifications disabled. However this does not stop users from turning those settings back on.
