Re: reduce gerrit mails?

Maybe we can suppress it inside our smtp server?

I've found the mailing templates to *modify* what is sent, but no documented way to completely suppress a specific mail.

If a template is removed, the default internal template is used. Possibly an empty template results in an empty message to trigger this code:

 if (body.length() == 0) {
   // If we have no message body, don't send.
   return false;
 }

gerrit-server/src/main/java/com/google/gerrit/server/mail/OutgoingEmail.java

But the jenkins notifications are apparently only comments like any other users', i.e. we'd need crafty filtering and such :/

Maybe I'll come back to this some other time... <disappointed>
