Temporarily suppress email notifications

[Const]

Is there a way to temporarily suppress email notifications? I have Trac configured to send email notifications using `smtp_always_bcc`. This works fine most of the time, but there are situations where it doesn't make sense to spam my team with email, such as assigning a bunch of tickets to a milestone.

I'm aware of QuietPlugin, which does exactly what I need, but it depends on AnnouncerPlugin which I don't really want to install.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

My low-tech method I use when I occassionally want to update or close out a bunch of tickets for a release without spamming everyone is to just go into the trac.ini and turn of the smtp_enabled temporarily until I am done, then I re-enable it.

That's what I do now. I do it so much, however, I regularly keep a SHH terminal open so I can edit trac.ini; I am hoping for better solution.

Perhaps use BatchModifyPlugin? It contains a checkbox to "Send E-mail
Notifications" on/off when making batch changes to tickets.

BatchModifyPlugin doesn't cover all cases where I might want to suppress emails (e.g. creating tickets), but the other features of the plugin make it very, very useful anyway; I just might keep it installed. That being said, there is no Python 2.7 version. I built one from the trunk, but I'm not sure how stable the trunk is. Sad to see it needs a maintainer.
