Make automatic emails upon exporting data optional
Make receiving an email when you do an export an option instead of automatic. I
I never import and almost always save my report or print it before leaving WA. The emails are just junk to me.

Concerning information security from membership list, I was told I cannot disable email notification for "Export file is ready for download". What I mean is when I click the following
Contacts > Saved Searches > Run > Export
Also, Members > Export allI would receive an email notification that the export file is now ready for download. It is really unnecessary to receive the email notification because I am working on the list at that time. As you know email is never secure, I really prefer to disable the email notification. The membership list should not be sent by email.
We would appreciate your consideration for the improvement. If this improvement has happened, please let me know.
Thank you.

I’m following up on another issue I added to my wishlist months ago.
Every time I export a membership list, I get an email with the subject “Export file is ready for download,” even though I’m the one who triggered the export and downloaded it right away.
This doesn’t make sense, especially considering privacy and confidentiality concerns. I’m already working on the platform — I don’t need an email reminder for something I just did myself.
Can this automatic notification be turned off or made optional for admins?
