Temporarily Disable Notification Email Alerts

Situation You received an email alert of an email being blocked outbound or an alert notice from a triggered filter.

This notification follows the customization alert notification.

  • Silent Users are not notified, the tech contact is.
  • Other users will get the notification.
  1. Open and review the email alert you have received. 
  2. Click on the link that aligns to the length of time for which you want to suspend delivery of system alerts:
    • 1 hour
    • 3 hours
    • 24 hours

The system will disable the delivery of system alerts of the same type as selected in step 1, for the time period selected.

System alerts for other reasons may continue to arrive.
