Hello!

Last week I set up 2 event in Outlook Calendar, toggled the Teams option on, and invited one attendee. The attendee then forwarded both meeting invites it to a lengthy contact list. One meeting/event passed without hiccup. The second meeting is troublesome. For the past two days ALL hundreds of attendees received one email a day at 6:22pm reminding them of the event. I thought this was weird, so I checked my sent emails and was surprised to see two email reminders. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to disable this incredibly annoying and embarrassing option. Please help!

    To stop Outlook/Teams from sending attendees recurring reminders for meetings, you can adjust the settings in the Microsoft Teams admin center or use Windows PowerShell. Here are the steps:

    Using the Microsoft Teams Admin Center:

    1. In the left navigation, go to Meetings > Conference Bridges.
    2. At the top of the Conference Bridges page, select Bridge settings.
    3. In the Bridge settings pane, enable or disable Automatically send emails to users if their dial-in settings change.
    4. Select Save.

    Using Windows PowerShell:

    You can also use the Microsoft Teams PowerShell module to manage this setting. Run the following command:

    Set-CsOnlineDialInConferencingTenantSettings -AutomaticallySendEmailsToUsers $False
    

    This command will prevent emails from being sent to users when their dial-in settings change.

    Make sure to communicate any changes to your attendees, as they will not receive notifications if you disable this feature.
