How to disable mail completely

For installations in disconnected areas where no Internet connection exist, we want to completely short circuit the mail sending functionality.

Sure, we could configure the SMTP like so:

<Mail SMTPServer="bogus"/>

... but it can produce error messages. Is it possible to turn off e-mail by configuration?

    Hello Moramatte,

    You can use below code in InnovatorServerConfig.xml file. 

    <Mail SMTPServer="queue"/>

    Thanks and regards,

      Thanks. Yes that is how we do it currently.

      However the administrator complains that we are "spamming the file system" as we output the mails on disk.

      Is there a way to hook up some kind of dummy queue that simply discards the mails?
