Add custom associated data to the alarms you want to be email only then filter off that in the alarm table. Could be as simple as a bool called `pipelineOnly`.

I can't touch the alarm table, is there another way?

Consider not using alarm pipelines for such one-off emails. Use `system.net.sendEmail` in your own event scripts.

(Only alarms can go through alarm pipelines.)
