no Option for disabling welcome E-Mails for access to self service portal

This feature already exists. It’s under Federated Sign-in options.

please show me, because in our central panel there is no option at federated sign-in option.

there are only two other options for enabling self service portal:

1. directly at the user, which adds self service role

2. globaly for all users

In both cases an email will be sent, now and for future users.

we cannot use these option, and it doesnt exist on the 3rd one:

If you're using SSO/Azure, you shouldn't be using the 3rd one as you're logging in with Federated credentials (Azure). Select the 2nd option and untick the box.

Otherwise, of course Sophos is sending welcome emails. Sophos Central Admin accounts need to be setup via a link sent by Sophos.

we need the 3rd option, because login needs to be possible with UPN and of course we have admin accounts that uses sophos id to login

UPNs work with the 2nd option. Create Azure user logins for your admins and assign them the appropriate roles. Easy.

will giving it a try, nevertheless there should be options disabling welcome emails as well, or the option sending them in different languages.

There's a lot of things there SHOULD be. Just have to work around the system we've got.

Unfortunately Sophos removed their enhancement request forum, because too many customers voted up things that customer wanted but Sophos didn't want to do - for example; XG Firewall having a NTP was the top voted enhancement and at the time they shutdown the forum, it had been that way for 8 years. Apparently the new process is to go through your partner, but that ends up nowhere. Sophos don't appear to care about what customers want, which is disappointing, they simply care about what their developers/roadmap say, but their products are normally pretty good so I guess you take the bad with the good.

indeed, there are a lot of things which are half-hearted or not there anymore, and the new way, going through the partner is a no go, because as you said, it ends up nowhere. thats why posted this in the community

NTP on XG/XGS, UPN Login in Central, and many many more. 

Stuart, we removed the form because we are switching systems not because we don't care. I would say especially the email system takes into customer feature requests via our field engineers, partners and customers including forum. We are revamping our interface and you will see some changes that should include FR submission. In the meantime I'm here :) how many other product managers monitor forums this closely? rhetorical question, doesn't need an answer. 

Tom Foucha perhaps I'm being a little unfair. The email security team, in particular yourself, have been very helpful. I suppose I speaking about Sophos more generally - specifically the XG Firewall and Endpoint teams - who are polar opposite.

This Sophos link doesn't suggest that you're switching systems, but rather the form is removed permanently: community.sophos.com/.../sophos-ideas-portal-retirement
