Not do much an objection as a desire for one "build completed" message reporting a successful build after any failing build. I’m not interested in repeated success reports but I would like to know that the build has been repaired.
Knowing the build is broken is important enough to receive a message in my in box. But then what do I do? Do I visit the site every hour to check? That’s not satisfactory.
Now, given it’s not too hard to search and delete, I would lean more towards reporting successful builds in email than towards not getting any success notifications at all.
