Notification Delivery Settings
This section of the Notification Settings page allows you to enable/disable notifications for specific events and communication channels.
For example, you can restrict email notifications to be triggered only when someone @mentions you in a task. This can be done by disabling email notifications for Task Comments.

Right now, task-related notifications can be managed from the Notification Settings page. However, many useful events will be added soon, and we encourage you to let us know the events you would like real-time notifications for 🙂
