Hello!
We’re running into a problem with too many emails being sent per day. We have about 90-100 daily active users, but around 1k emails are being sent per day. I’m assuming it’s coming from daily digest? Is there a way to globally change that to weekly? Also, any other tips on how to lower the amount of emails being sent daily?
Thanks,
Callahan

Looking at `admin > email > sent` might give you a quick idea of where most emails are coming from…
In terms settings to potentially reduce emails:
- If you go to `admin > settings` you can search for `default email digest frequency` and change that value.
- You can also try lowering `max emails per day per user`
- It might be worth checking if any of the mailing list mode settings are enabled? Those would generate a lot of emails. You can also prevent users from turning on mailing list mode in their preferences with the `disable mailing list mode` setting.
