I have a suggestion that probably would require a lot of work to set
up, but would solve this issue.

All the notification emails come with a reply-to address.  If a
packager sends a reply to a notification, an application receives the
email at that address, and cancels the sending of that type of
notification for that person (that email address). So, as a packager
goes about their daily work, if they don't want to receive a type of
notification, they just hit reply, and they never receive that type of
notification again. If they want to receive it in the future after
cancelling it, however, they will have to manually configure that.

The work is in writing an application to receive the emails and do the
cancellation of future emails.
