Hmmm. . . nope.  I don't think that's a good idea.  It's just this one situation where 
it's a problem.  And they *want* the new mail notifications.  Just not that silly 
envelope in the task bar.  If I blocked new mail notifications I'd have about 700 
users screaming for my blood. 

I've forwarded the solution to the user who asked about it (upgrade to Outlook XP).

You know, its not a great solution, but you could always block UDP packets
from the Exchange box back to the machine. IPSec filters should be able to
handle that. That would block the new mail notificaitons entirely, however.
