What is the current bug behavior?

Notification emails are still sent for users who have disabled the Pipeline fails notification event when their global notification level is set to Custom.

What is the expected correct behavior?

That notification emails for failed pipelines are only sent if the Pipeline fails notification event is enabled when a user has their global notification level set to Custom.
