To mute a conversation:

  1. Click the  Messaging icon at the top of your homepage.

  2. Select the message from the list on the left pane.

    Note: Once you select a message, the entire conversation thread of that message is shown on the right.

  3. Click the  More icon on top of the conversation thread and select Mute conversation.
