I have tried the solutions that came up here on a search but none of them work. How ******g hard can it be to stop notifications popping up every 5 ******g minutes??????

I am using Microsoft's own piece of ***t software and, for reasons I won't go into now, I am going to continue using it so solutions, and not recommendations to use other programs, would be extremely well received.

Many thanks

Have you tried Settings | Sounds & Notifications | Notifications and ticking/unticking the desired options for messages?

I have the same problem. I'd love to hear from someone who has actually solved this problem.

Sorry all, but I am confused.

I dont have the popup.

Start - Settings - Sound and Notifications - Notifications Tab, Messaging: New Email message.

Took the ticks out of:
Play Sound
Display Message on screen,
Flash Light
Vibrate

All I get now is a notification on the HTC Home Plugin:

Using toms B&B 4.2, and email through an exchange server.

Hi! I'm using Tom's 4.2 with an Exchange server too. And of course I disabled everything as you suggest. What I get is:

- on HTC home, the count of unread messages.
- an "unread" email icon on the top bar
- a "Notifications" text in the left soft button
- when I click it, a popup appears reminding me I've unread messages, and I have to dismiss it.

All of this is overkill for me. And except the HTC home bit, it's all in the original ROM too, so it's a WM thing, unrelated to Tom's ROM.

What I want is:

- only the unread count in HTC home.
- if it can't be removed, I'd settle for the top bar icon too
- NO notifications about unread email. Save the notifications only for the urgent stuff. I don't want to have to dismiss the popup before I can use my left soft button for other more productive things.

I hope that clears it :)
