Too many notification emails.

After running a few test-drives of my site, I noticed that new members recieve a whole slew of notification emails:

1. If they don’t have an account with Paypal, they will get a new account notification.
2. Notification of payment sent via paypal.
3. Notification of New automatic payment profile for recurring payment.
4. Notification of New User registration.
5. Notification of Username and Password.
6. Confirmation email from Aweber for list subscription.

YIKES! Some of my members have also noticed that their gmail is putting these in SPAM folder because there’s so many all at once.

Any ideas how to consolidate these or minimize it?

Hello Nevin,

Well the first 3 emails are from PayPal, telling the user that things have been done with his account.

The last 3 emails are from WordPress and AWeber.

So to remove the first 3 emails I’m afraid that depends on the user, I personally don’t have a PayPal account yet so I’m not sure if this is possible, but it should be possible to configure when you get sent an email.

The last 3 emails are unavoidable I’m afraid. The notification of new user registration is only received by the admin user and any other emails you have configured to receive it I believe. I believe you can configure that under Dashboard -› s2Member® -› General Options -› Email Configuration.

The other 2 are sent by WordPress (you would have to modify WordPress to remove it) and AWeber, which is a confirmation email that HAS to be sent in order to confirm their signup to that mailing list or whatever.
