The recipient can be bound to a notification group only after subscription confirmation. Subscription confirmation is not required again during such binding.

• Sending excessive messages can lower the SMN service quality for everyone. The cloud platform limits how often endpoints receive notifications to avoid this issue. When notification limits are exceeded, SMN will stop sending new notifications. For details about the limits, see Resilience.
