Many repeating notification emails to admin

Whenever someone requests an account on my wiki, I get notified of the account request via email, which is good. However, I get notified up to 7 times. Could this be caused by the extension, or is this likely a mail setup issue?

Still an issue with REL1_31. I get 7 email when an account is requested.

I get the same issue, but with only 2 e-mails (same for all bureaucrats)

I tried the following fix, and it worked for my case: set the following properties in LocalSettings.php:

$wgConfirmAccountContact = ''; # to make sure this variable is set

$wgGroupPermissions['*']['confirmaccount-notify'] = false; # withdraw all notifications

$wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['confirmaccount-notify'] = true; # enable notification to bureaucrats

However, I'm not sure why this worked...

(I actually still get double notifications sometimes)

Wiki 1.34.2

The administrator and the user will receive a confirmation email with the confirmation link.
