Your e-mail address will be added to Jenkins job repository configuration[4] and you will receive one e-mail a day per repository and job, but only if there are any failed jobs. In short, if you are an owner of one repository with one job, you will receive 0-2 e-mails a day, depending on the stability of the job.<br><br></div><div>I do not care if the contact e-mail address is a person or a team.
