How to turn off email notifications on iCloud How can I turn off email notifications on iCloud? When I access iCloud mail on my mac in Safari, I get endless popups letting me know about every single email I received. This is super annoying. I have seen a similar question from a user who was using Chrome. It isn't a browser issue; it's an iCloud issue.

How do I stop emails flagged important by sender from staying at the top of my mac mail inbox? Hi, I have received a couple of emails flagged important (with the two exclamation marks next to them) by senders in my mac mail and they constantly stay at the top of my inbox even though they are months old. All new emails come in below them. How do I change the setting that is keeping them at the top of my inbox please? I don't want to delete them as I need them but would rather they are arranged as normal in date order like all the other emails in my inbox. Thanks

How to get rid of the notification of mail delivery on my Mac? Mail is putting a notice of what mail I am receiving in the upper right hand corner of my screen. It is covering actions such as labeling an email with a color, or forwarding. I can't remove it. This is a new problem. How can I get rid of the box? [Re-Titled by Moderator]
