Automatic emails
I could sure use a list of every action that generates an automatic email and how to turn automatic emails off. Of course, I'd really like a general off switch for all automatic emails.

I don't mind having automatic emails on, but I'd like to be able to find them all in one location.

yes, a switch to temp turn off emails would be great, like when a new acct is open it has this function......

I would like to add to this idea! We had a similar experience of members complaining about "too many emails" being sent by the system. My argument was that each email had a PURPOSE but it would be great to have a check box at the bottom of each action that would cause an email and have it pre-checked for them to uncheck if they do not want a message. For instance, a member application have a check box at the bottom that says "send me a confirmation of my application by email" so they can choose NOT to get an email in that situation.

Great idea, DeeDee! We also have a similar one.
Jeanne, when you say about switching all automatic emails off you mean switching them for good? Or pause them for fixing some kind of problem?
I'd like to hear more details if possible.

Yes! When one is new to WA, it is difficult to figure out what action triggers automatic emails and which emails they trigger. I think the information can be found in the documentation, but you need to look in multiple places and, especially when you are new, you do not know where to look. I have only found some automatic emails by reviewing the email log after the action is complete.
