DavidGC2195 Good idea. I have not tested it but it'd be good news if it does as you wouldn't have to get every member do the change manually.
You can easily try with just one member. Would you try and provide feedback?
Thank you in any case!

- DavidGC2195Aug 26, 2024Brass ContributorThank you so much, Josu_Lekaroz!As a summary here is the solution proposed by Josu_Lekaroz @
- Adjust Group Settings
- Ensure the Microsoft 365 Group setting “Send copies of team email and events to team member inboxes” is turned off.
- Note that this change will only work for new team or group members as they will not receive invitations but that will not affect users that were members previous to unchecking.
- Ensure the Microsoft 365 Group setting “Send copies of team email and events to team member inboxes” is turned off.
- To Change this also for existing members of that team there are two options where option 2 is the easiest:
- Manual Changes in Outlook: Existing team members need to manually adjust their Outlook settings to stop receiving group messages.
- Re-add Members: Remove all members from the team and add them back. New members will not receive event notifications unless specifically invited.
- Manual Changes in Outlook: Existing team members need to manually adjust their Outlook settings to stop receiving group messages.
Too bad we cannot mark Josu_Lekaroz as best answer(s) anymore. The one marked as best answer now is not correct as explained in this thread. Would be good if this can be changed.
Thank you all for participating

Hi DavidGC2195, good news
I have tested this on my tenant and I can confirm that it works!
Once you have unchecked the "Send copies of team email and events to team member inboxes" for the group (as explained in a previous post), remove all members and then add them back again to the team. As new members, they will not receive event notifications unless they are specifically invited.
Hope this helps
Josu
