Disable Forum Email Notification for Forum Creator

Disable Forum Email Notification for Forum Creator

It would be great to be able to disable the email notification sent to the Forum owner every time someone posts in a forum. I am the Admin on our account and because I created the Project Template with some predefined Forums, I get an email every single time someone posts in the forum, even if the user posting the message does not send it to me. 

Using the Zoho chat I have been told there is no way to disable the emails.

Is there any way to workaround this "feature"? Could I setup a "dummy" account that I would use to setup the template and that would just collect all the emails....

                                                                                                                      I downloaded a large folder via "Make offline" so I could copy it to another location.
