How to turn off TFS alerts on Release

I have a continuous integration build set up. On check-in, it builds the solution, and then starts a release to DEV for each piece. When those releases get done, I get an email for each separate release (every time someone checks in). How do I turn those off? Using TFS 2015. I am the administrator and I don't want the emails to go out at all.

The setting is in the release definition environment. Follow the steps below to change the settings:

  1. Click "Edit" button to edit the release definition.
  2. Click "..." button on the environment and select "Deployment conditions" option.
  3. Switch to "General" tab.
  4. Set "Send emails notifications" to "Never". enter image description here

If you are using a personal alert, you just need to directly delete the alert.

If your team are using a team alert, since you are a member of your team, you will also get one. Alerts are sent to each team member based on your preferred email address, which they set through your profile.

There is no setting for an alert which only sending to whole team just exclude you. If you really want this, you may have to ask your team admin to remove you from the team.

There is a workaround to solve the problem. You can set some rules in email tools such as Outlook, once you got these kind of emials, delete them immediately
