Hi, We have an issue about receiving email tells "The search that you sent to the background has completed"

We receive this email sometimes.

How we can turn it off ?

Thanks for any advice.

BR,

It seems like you're experiencing a bug SPL-47705 which was fixed in 4.3.2. Please upgrade to 4.3.2 or later.

If you're okay to disable any background job complete notification, you can remove your email address from "Manager -> Your Account"
