Default Setting for Team Email Notifications in Microsoft Teams

Hi,

When creating a new team in Microsoft Teams, there is an option to "send copies of team emails and events to team members' inboxes." By default, this setting is always turned off.

Is there a way to set this option to be enabled by default, so I don’t have to manually turn it on every time I create a new team? Also is there a way to tick this box for all existing teams?

Thanks in advance

    Unfortunately there isn't such option. If you are provisioning Groups/Teams via PowerShell or the Graph API, just add the relevant parameter therein (for example New-UnifiedGroup -AutoSubscribeNewMembers). Otherwise, you need to switch it post-creation.

    Also, keep in mind that toggling this setting only applies to newly added members to the Group/Team. Existing members will still not be "subscribed", so if you want to remedy that you need to add them to the subscribers list via Add-UnifiedGroupLinks.
