nwehlYou need to enter Planner and adjust the available settings. You can see the "Plan settings" under the three dots in the Planner meny.

 

Group email settings
- Email is always sent to the group when a comment is made on a task. You can adjust more settings in the Planner notifications settings

Only group owners can change this setting.
 
To stop receiving any group messages, select "Don't receive any group messages" in group settings.
