Remove notifications for users

As an admin, is there a way I can disable email notifications from users' System Settings? In other words, instead of asking each user to go to his/her "System Settings" dialog, clicking on "Notifications" and then going through each notification and disabling them, is there a way I can do this through a script?

Why do I need this? Too many users are NOT disabling notifications that they no longer need. Instead, they are simply throwing the email notifications into their trash can. So we're sending out a lot of unnecessary emails, and during peak times, this is causing huge email latency issues.

I'd rather disable all notifications and then force each user to subscribe to the notifications he/she needs. I do NOT want to disable email notifications altogether, because each user has unique needs, and I cannot predict who needs what and when.

Thanks!

You should be able to disable it from the User form for each individual user. If you want to disable in bulk, you can update using import method with Notification field being set to disable.
