Comments

This script statement can only be used in the Process tab of notifications. It removes the specified users, user groups or email addresses from the list of responsible recipients.

The specified recipients are not permanently deleted as this script statement does not change the Notification object. The modification only applies for a particular execution.

Ensure that you do not remove all responsible recipients when you use wildcard characters. Otherwise, script processing aborts and an error message is generated.
