📧 Email Alert Settings

Control which email notifications you receive:

You can disable email notifications if you prefer not to receive automated emails for:

• New Quotes
• New Orders
• Accepted Quotes
• ... and more

⚠️ Not Recommended: Disabling notifications makes it easy to miss important updates about quotes, orders and payments. We recommend keeping notifications enabled to stay informed.
