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>

I also thought about a grep + rm shell script working on my maildir files :P

I have in fact solved my problem locally now, so I won't press this from my side anymore, though I'd be +1 for reducing the mails for everyone.

In maildir where each mail is in a separate file:

move_to_dropped() { while read f; do # make sure jenkins is the sender if [ -n "$(grep '^From: Jenkins Builder gerrit-no-reply@lists.osmocom.org$' "$f")" ]; then echo mv "$f" "$dropped_dir" mv "$f" "$dropped_dir" fi done }

rgrep -l '^Build Started http://jenkins.osmocom.org/jenkins/job' "$inbox" | move_to_dropped rgrep -l '^Build Successful $' "$inbox" | move_to_dropped
