Though I really hate facebook, I was asked today by a friend who is not really into computers to disable, mail notification for him.
The mail notification, annoying feature is one of the stupidest idea someone ever had, as very active facebook users had their inbox totally spammed like with messages from facebook …
Anyways, here is how I removed the facebook email notification
1. Login to facebook
2. Go to Account Settings and click on notifications and then uncheck the option, e.g.:
Account Settigns -> Profile Settings -> Messages
There are a number of messages that facebook by default sents, so in order to remove the mail notification messages I scrolled down and unchecked all related to facebook email notification.

When I clicked Account settings, clicked Notifications, it showed Recent Notifications and All notifications. No profile setting to uncheck messages. Hope you can assist me further. Thank you.

Hi JD,
View CommentView CommentI guess facebook changed that you should be able to disable the annoying facebook mail notifications from:
Account Settings -> Notifications
Hope this helps,
best

I think you are referring to notification to my email inbox. Actually I was asking about status of facebook to my mobile. Nevertheless, thank you for the information. Problem solved.

No apology needed :). What i did to stop notification from facebook to my mobile was this, when the text received from the network, just type ‘ FB OFF’ and reply to the sender. It depends on respective network. The other way I did was, clicked Account setting, then Edit Profile, then Contact Information. Delete your mobile number. I hope that will help IT illiterate like me. Lol
