Managing your notifications and watches
The Watch function in Confluence indicates what you receive notifications on. You can manage what you are watching here http://projects Project notifications are sent to your business email address from noreply@projects.tmforum.org/wiki/users/viewnotifications.action

In Your Profile select Watches
Users have the option to watch a whole space, a section of the page tree in a space and it's descendant or just a page. TM Forum reccomends, at a minimum, watching the Discussions section and it's descedants.
Default Notifications settings when a user joins a project
Project Discussions are used by project teams to create and discuss relevant topics in a collaborative, online environment. All Collaboration projects have a Discussions listing page in the Page Tree.
Each Collbaoration project has a Discussion section in the the page tree. When you first join a project you will automatically receive notifications when a new discussion post is created or a reply is made.
Some projects have just a General discussion forum while other projects have both a general discussion form and forums dedicated to specific topics. Initially project members get notification on all discussion forums, .
If you are only interested in one topic, "Life Cycle Model" for example, you can update your notifications to receive only those discussion posts. To ensure you receive notification manage your notifications of new discussion topics, double check that select or unselect "Watch Descendants" is selected on the topic on a Discussion forum page.
Daily Updates
The Daily Update is a nice way to get updates on spaces you watch. You can manage what you are subscribed to here http://projects.tmforum.org/wiki/users/viewmyemailsettings.action
I have selected to subscribe to daily updates.
Here is an example of a Daily Update I get from Confluence, it allows me to see the "pulse" of projects that I am actively managing and others that I am only participating or just interested in.
