Currently there is no way to disable "Welcome Emails".

In the Zendesk Support dashboard if you go to Settings > Customer and look under "account emails" you will see that there is no option to [DISABLE] welcome emails.

This makes no sense to me at all. Why is Zendesk forcing it's customers to send out automated emails? I've been told twice that the only way to turn it off is to disable the Help Centre completely..... that's not a solution.

Sure you could argue that it's a fairly important email to have; but it still does not make any sense to force people into it with no way out apart from shutting down Guide? 

Can Zendesk please develop a simple [DISABLE] button that stops automated welcome emails?

Customers are bombarded with enough emails as it is without an automatic welcome email. If in a 5min time span a customer submits an email and gets a reply they would receive 3x emails, which is a terrible brand experience.

They would be:
- Notified that their ticket is submitted (email)
- Prompted to sign up with the welcome (email)
- Receive a reply from our agents (email)
