Hi all,
I want to create a code which sends a mass PM to all my plattform members using messages_new_message:

Something like that, iterating over all my user ids:

		$msg = array(
			'recipients' => [$uid], 
			'subject' => $subject, 
			'content' => $content
		);

		messages_new_message ($msg);

The downside is: It sends a mail notification to everyone and thus, it takes quite some time if you execute this code for 1000 members.

Is there a way to disable a mail notification solely for this single PM message sent?

Thanks
