71+ #### Group blacklisting
72+
73+ You can set the ` settings.notifications.blacklistedGroups ` variable to a list of
74+ contact groups you do not want to receive event notifications for.
75+ This can be used in two ways:
76+
77+ - if the contacts you do not want to receive the notifications for are already
78+ in a group (e.g. you might have an 'Extended family' group containing the
79+ contacts of far relatives whose birthdays you are not actually interested in)
80+ you can add that group name to the ` blacklistedGroups ` list
81+ - if you have a certain number of contacts that you want to blacklist, but they
82+ do not share a common group you can add them to a new group (e.g:
83+ 'GCEN-blacklist') and add that group name to the ` blacklistedGroups ` list
