Getting all TFS 2012 Alerts

TFS

I am having an issue with alerts in TFS 2012 and have posted on MSDN and Stackoverflow for help. I haven't been able to figure out the issue.

I have created Team Alerts in TFS 2012 to send an alert to specific person on a team when a work item is assigned to them. The issue is that I am receiving an alert anytime anything is changed in a work item. I am also getting an alert when a work item is assigned to someone else on the team. I am a TFS administrator as well as a project administrator for each tfs project.

Here is the team alert I have setup:


Team Project = Test
And Assigned To Changes To [Me]
And Authorized As <> [Me]

Like I stated above, I am getting an alert anytime anything is changed with a work item or when any work item is created even if it is not assigned to me. The team alert seems to be working for the other team members.

The issues seems to only occur for the "Project Administrators" and "TFS Administrators". The other team members are only getting an alert when a work item is assigned to them. I am getting several hundred alerts per day and I need to figure out the issue.

As a side note, I am also getting duplicate alerts. For each alert I get, I actually get 2 copies of the same alert.

I would really appreciate any help anyone could provide.

Thanks!
