 Hey @freedomlock2011,

 The emails should have now stopped, as your site has updated correctly to
 5.6 now instead of staying on 5.6.1-alpha. The update to 5.6.1-alpha was
 unexpected and affected a minority of WordPress sites.

 However, the emails you have received signify something else wrong, it
 appears that something is causing the WordPress upgrade routines to get
 triggered every minute, which should never happen under normal
 circumstances.

 You're not alone, as amongst those who upgraded to 5.6.1-alpha quite a few
 other people have also experienced the same (or more) level of emails, it
 appears that it may be behaviour limited to a few specific web hosts, so
 I've reached out to a few contacts to see if we can find the cause
 (including one at your webhost).

 If you're able to, are you able to share the contents of the `cron` option
 in your WordPress database? or let us know if there's anything being
 flagged in your Site Health tool in the WordPress dashboard?
