Mail popups in KDE 4.7.0

[Lester M. Petrie Jr.]

Hi

Since I updated to KDE 4.7.0 (except for kdepim, which is 4.4.11), I am being driven 
crazy with popup notifcations whenever email is delivered (or sent).  There are 2 
different popups that are generated for each instance, and each time they are displayed, 
a sound is produced.  I would really like to turn the popups off, but if that is not 
possible, then suppressing the sound alert would be better than nothing.  The first 
popup is:

USER: The MBox file was changed by 
another program. A copy of the new 
file was made and pending changes 
are appended to that copy. To prevent 
this from happening use lockin...

where USER is my user id.  There looks to be more to this message, but I can't find it.  
The second message is:

USER: The file 
'file:///var/spool/mail/USER' 
was changed on disk while there were 
still pending changes in Akonadi. To 
avoid data loss, a backup of the 
internal changes has been crea...

Again I am unable to find the rest of this message.  I had to downgrade kdepim because 
the mail migration failed, and kmail2 would not start.  It complained about an invalid 
mailbox, but I created a new user with no mailbox, and it wouldn't start there either. 
KDE 4.7 solved some other problems I was having, so I really don't want to have to 
backup to what I was using before, but these popups are very distracting, and when a 
couple of hundred Fedora 16 update emails show up, the bottom right corner of my screen 
is essentially worthless until they have all been delivered.  Once they came so close 
together they caused knotify to go into a loop.
