not possible via current plugin.
i know someone from the rhevm team is looking into sending a patch
to the gerrit trigger jenkins plugin [1] to stop these alerts. (or at least make them
configurable)
meanwhile, the only solution i can think of is changing ability of the jenkins user
to email reviewers, which i think is only supported from gerrit 2.5.2: (we're using
2.4.2)
from the plugin doc [2]:
"Reduce number of notification emails
Since the trigger adds a comment in Gerrit for each build start and end, usually all the
reviewers get a notification email. This can get quite annoying. However, it's
possible to configure Gerrit so that only the change owner and people who starred the
change get a notification email. To do this DENY the 'Email Reviewers' capability
for the Gerrit user that is used by Jenkins. See
https://gerrit-review.googlesource.com/Documentation/access-control.html#...

I've been avoiding upgrading gerrit as it relatively stable now, but if
there are relevant features, can revisit.
(the copying of flags on rebases without any change is a nice one)
