A great blog post on disabling Outlook 2003 “IN YOUR FACE” features. Of course, when Outlook 2003 came out, it was very cool that you see each inbound email pop up in the bottom-right corner. Another one of those features that is cool from a technology standpoint, but bad from a productivity standpoint.
- Click “Tools…”
- Click “Options…”
- On “Preferences” tab, click “E-mail Options…”
- Click “Advanced E-Mail Options…”
- Uncheck all 4 boxes under “When new items arrive in my Inbox”
Now you can read your email on your own schedule.

I spent an hour trying to figure this out, I hope this post ends your search for the same answer. If you’re new to typo (as I was) and are struggling to get Typo contest winning themes to work, try this quick fix (taken from Typo theming guide).
Typo trunk recently broke compatibility with a lot of the Typo Garden themes (according to ticket:817). You will have to replace the following line from layouts/default.rhtml
<%= render_component(
:controller => ‘sidebars/sidebar’,
:action => ‘display_plugins’) %>
with the line:
<%= render_sidebars %>
to get the themes to work with Typo trunk.
