I wanted to disable email notifications for new messages and stuff, but it does not seem to work. I unset the correct options in the preferences: "Receive news and update emails", "Receive email when a new conversation message is received". But I still get emails. Waited a few days to propagate, tried again.. no change. Any idea?

Yeah, there may be a long, long lag before the new settings start to work(?)... I think I just blocked any incoming mails automatically through my end so I don’t get those anymore.

More than a couple of day’s seems suspect. There mails are send almost in real time, I don’t see a reason why the setting would not work in real time as well.

The link in the email message to disable emails from ASR might have done the trick.. I'll update here once I can confirm (in parallel I also made a rule to bin these mails, so not 100% sure ;))

It looks like that did it :) So for anyone having the problems: just use the link in the email to unsubscribe!
