Together: How to stop receiving notifications on certain questions

I don't think this is about emails (at least the word "mail" does not appear anywhere in the question). Personally, I do not receive any emails from TJC at all (which is what I want), but whenever I visit, there's the red envelope icon on top of the page, highlighting "responses" to anything I previously took part in. It would be great to be able to turn this off for specific questions.

I see. Somehow I directly connected notifications with the email notifications. But these are indeed two different things and the subscription settings only apply to email notifications.

Thanks @tokaru, that is exactly what I meant! :-)

I agree, it's a tricky thing :) Well, the tooltip says "you have x new responses". I'd be consequent with that and only notify about entries that are actually a response:

• an answer to my question
• a comment on my answer
• anything mentioning me with the @ prefix

While an edit to a question I commented on and subsequent comments might be interesting, I would not consider them something I should get notified about by the red envelope, as they are not explicitly directed at me. I suggest that these do not trigger the red envelope, but are still listed on the page the envelope takes me to when you click it. So you could still have a look into these potentially interesting items, but are not prompted to do so. For me, this would be perfect, no need for an "ignore" option.

That sounds about right for me too. Another option would be a set of tick-boxes, like the ones for mail at various intervals, but for types of notification triggers instead.
