Hi adam deltinger

I have. I already checked the Plan settings and everything is turned off. Not sure why I am still receiving the email notifications.

dojca Additionally, can you confirm users have not subscribed to receive copy of their group emails in the inbox?

I had a similar problem and I just setup an Email rule.
Not the best option, however I don't think you can disable Email messages as its part of the O365 communication system.

Hope it helps 🙂

  I just looked at adam deltinger link and it does show you how to stop getting the notifications.
  You have to edit the mailbox setting to stop receiving messages from the group.

    gastles yeah that setting doesn't have the intended effect. Still getting email notifications for comments in planner.
    Spamming our inbox with notifications of activity should not be the default. Especially when it's myself making those comments... common Microsoft.
