If you are receiving irrelevant emails due to the “Reply All” feature, what can you do to reduce notifications?

Using the "m" keyboard shortcut to mute a specific message thread is an effective way to reduce notifications without turning off all email alerts or unsubscribing altogether. When you mute a conversation, you will no longer receive notifications for new replies in that thread, which can significantly declutter your inbox and help minimize distractions caused by irrelevant replies.

This feature is particularly useful when you want to stay a part of the original conversation without being bombarded by every response, especially if many recipients are using "Reply All." It allows you to maintain a cleaner inbox while still having access to the information if needed later on.

Turning off email notifications entirely results in the loss of visibility into all email communications, which can also make it difficult to manage important messages. Unsubscribing from email threads removes you from them permanently, which isn't always ideal for discussions you might want to follow. Finally, blocking the sender prevents the sender's emails from reaching your inbox, but it wouldn’t solve the issue of being overwhelmed by notifications from ongoing email discussions where others are involved. Thus, muting the conversation provides a targeted, flexible solution.
