Title, pretty much. I'm a Team Owner, which is why I believe I receive the emails in the first place, but even after turning off all email notifications under Settings > Account > My Notifications, the team failed deployment emails are still being sent. And twice, to boot.

The emails even show the link to manage notification settings at the bottom!

This happens for all projects in our team. These emails are irrelevant to me because we have a lot of monorepos with a single frontend component connected to Vercel, and these repos frequently receive commits to components (backend, data pipelines, docs, etc) not hosted in Vercel by teammates that don't need to have access to Vercel.

<!-- Current versus Expected behavior -->

**Current behaviour**: I go to my notification settings, disable "Deployment failures" under email, but still receive emails like this:

- Subject: Failed deployment from <GITHUB_USERNAME>
- Body: We’re writing to notify you that **<GITHUB_USERNAME>** is attempting to deploy a commit to **<TEAM_NAME>** on Vercel through GitHub, but they are not a member of the team.

**Expected behaviour**: I go to my notification settings, disable all email notifications, and I never receive a non-urgent email again.
