How do You Stop Sending Emails to the Entire Group?
If a ticket is assigned to a group without a designated agent, and a reply is posted in that ticket, the email notifications will be sent to the entire group. To stop the mail from being sent to the entire group, you can turn off the ticket replied email notification event in the admin module. Also, you can use the “Update Ticket Trigger” to send the email to one specific agent.
This article provides a step-by-step guide on how to customize email notifications for tickets assigned to a group, ensuring that only the responding agent receives updates rather than the entire group.
To prevent email notifications from being sent to both the agent and the group when a ticket is replied, you need to disable the default ticket reply notifications.

Follow the given steps to turn off the ticket replied event:
- Navigate to Admin > Email Notifications > Agent.
