Michael R Posted May 12, 2016 Posted May 12, 2016 I have a few hundred members who's email address is in the system, but no longer valid. Many of them are following specific forums, topics, and albums and have their settings to receive emails. Unfortunately, since their email addresses are no longer valid *I* get all the bounces to my email address. Every other weeks or so I will get over a 1,000 messages sent at one time to my inbox. So how do I fix this? Is there a way to easily un-follow everything for all members? Am I the only one with this issue? Is this a server problem? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Michael R Posted May 14, 2016 Author Posted May 14, 2016 I must post really stupid questions or questions too hard for anyone to answer. Am I the only person with this problem? The email problem -- not the one where no one ever replies to my posts...
IveLeft... Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 Not sure there is a simple stock IPS answer to help you here (or I havent found it), however for bounced mails and invalid emails if your using sparkpost or mandrill then this addon is fantastic, support is excellent too

I just upgraded and found this problem too. For users who have not logged in for over a year I am deleting their accounts, and for others I am manually resetting their notifications to PM not email. Ideally, I would like to mass prune all users to have no email notifications by default unless they choose them on next login.

Unless they have never posted anything, it messes up threads and causes confusion. I can't believable there is no way to reset all notifications.
