Each email notification that {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} sends contains header information. The header information in every email is consistent, so you can use it in your email client to filter or forward all {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} notifications, or certain types of {% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} notifications.
|
|
|
|
>[!NOTE] If you believe you're receiving notifications that don't belong to you, examine the `X-GitHub-Recipient` and `X-GitHub-Recipient-Address` headers. These headers show who the intended recipient is. Depending on your email setup, you may receive notifications intended for another user.
