Email Notifications

Question

Hello,

Earlier today I have clicked on one of my pages checkbox: Watch all content in this space

Later on, I have unclicked this checkbox, but I have continued to receive email notifications from all pages in this space.

I went to My Profile -> Settings-> Email Notifications and remove all the checkboxes except "Autowatch"

-> Unfortunately, I am still receiving an enormous amount of email notifications.

Please, help. What else could be done? Why Are Email notifications still coming from all the pages in the space?

Thank you!

Yeah, I have done all the recommendation above prior to posting my question.

Seems like it just took time after I have updated my settings. Emails stopped coming in as of this morning without me doing any additional action. So, all is good! Thank you!

This sounds like have a number of pages and spaces you are watching which triggers emails whenever activity happens on those particular items. I would look at your profile under the watches section and see what you have listed as watching. You can remove the watches on those particular items from that page by clicking on the stop watching link to right of the item.

Autowatching will also continue add watched content as you use Confluence further adding to the email notifications.

You can also receive notifications if people "mention" you on the page as well. Without seeing the content of the emails, it's harder to determine the source of the notification.
