Greetings,
Do you have Windows Live Mail running as well? If so, the alert happens regardless what your
options are I'm afraid.
If you just use Live Mail for e-mail, you can stop this from happening by not signing into
Live Mail using your Live ID. Just go into Live Mail, press the Alt key on the keyboard to
bring up the menu bar, choose the Tools menu, and then Options. Choose the Connection tab,
and then Stop signing in. Then confirm the operation.
Now Messenger won't display the alerts, but it will still internally notify Live Mail when
you receive an e-mail and automatically do the send/receive/sync as you'd expect. The only
real problem with this workaround is that you'll have to manually sign in to Live Mail to get
at your contacts/calendar.
