Stop receiving email notifications of people responses for some events

Hi,

In my organisation, we use the outlook calendar to organise meetings, etc. It is very useful to receive notifications via email when people respond.

However, I use the same tool to create seminars with many invitees, so it becomes very annoying to receive hundreds of mails and notifications for them. Is there a way to prevent outlook to send me emails for some of the events?

    Thanks, Ibhadighi,

    Just to double-check: If I uncheck Request Responses, the only change is that I will stop receiving notifications?

    I always interpreted that option as not asking the invitees to mark whether they will attend. If I uncheck, they will still have the option to respond, I will still be able to see which responses they have given, but just not receive an email each time?

    Best,

    In my experience, that is not correct. I have been looking for an option to only disable email notification, but none seem to exist.

    When you uncheck "request responses" and someone responds, you are unable to see their acceptance under tracking. The answer shows up as "none". I have tested it multiple times to no avail.

    Hello,

    Is there anyway to apply this to all the Meetings, instead of selecting Unchecking "Request Responses" for each meeting.

    Regards,

    Arman

    I want to toggle the feature off for everyone! I never want email responses from meeting invites.

    Hello

    Go to File – Options – Mail – Tracking and select “Update Tracking information, and then delete responses that don’t contain a comment.”

    This will stop you receiving all calendar responses via email but will still track the responses. This way you are not flooded with accepted or rejected invitation responses, and you are still able to see who has responded and their response.
