Comment:

 I agree, it should have some checkboxes to control these automated
 e-mails, I have 10 sites and its already spamming hard my inbox, and just
 having hooks or a plugin to fix this means adding even more complexity and
 more reasons for things to break, already half of the plugins i use are
 just to make wordpress work like it should (like plugin for the classic
 editor or plugin for showing media correctly on a truncated RSS).

 I dont even know where are they going with this feature, even a user with
 1 wp site, if he gets a e-mail every 3 days saying x or x was updated, how
 long will it go before it starts going to spam or the user starts ignoring
 the e-mails altogether... and i bet wodpress.com has in its panel some
 control for all automated e-mails.
