Windows 10: Alerts to New Email

When I am working on something it is annoying for the alerts to pop up in the lower right of my screen to tell me some advertiser or other emailer is sending me a msg. How do I turn this feature off?

N73 Music Edition new fw no email alert

Okay, I was having the same problem with my N73 not alerting me for new email, so after reading this thread, I deleted my Mailbox in my E-Mail Settings. I was going to re-create the mailbox under a new name, but I couldn't get the old mailbox to disappear.
Now, my old mailbox is still listed in the Messaging app, however it is NOT listed under email settings (so I can't actually change any of the settings), and yet NOW I get new email alerts! Even though no email accounts are defined in my settings. This is
a very strange, and pretty bad, bug. I hope someone from Nokia is reading this!

 

Email folder auto sync and getting alerts

I have created a folder in my Hotmail where certain new emails are directed to. On my phone, if I go to the folder list and manually sync it, I see the emails. I have the sync setting as "as items arrive" but I'm not getting any new emails in the
folder unless I manually sync it. Of course, I don't get any audio alert either. Is this by design? Do I have to use the base Inbox to automatically sync and get alerts?
