Above the notifications table are some controls, including a Do Not Disturb switch. I find that I have to interact with the notifications table, then move up once to get to the controls, then interact with that group to reach the individual switches. There may be a quicker way to toggle it though.

I have mine configured and working. It's sending and receiving as I would expect. Here's my problem: It's far too chatty. It wants to notify me of every new email arrival and read me the top of the message. Sometimes that's a good thing, but often it's a nuisance that interferes with other work. It's certainly a nuisance for my Mac to start chattering like a chipmunk while I'm in the middle of saying something on a work teleconference. So, I'm looking for easy ways to turn this behavior on and off. Suggestions would be most appreciated. My ideal is an easy toggle mechanism as having those automated announcements is truly useful--but not always. So far all I've found is the Do Not Disturb facility under System Preferences / Notifications, but that seems to want a time frame. Surely I shouldn't be reduced to specifying midnight to 23:59 as the DND window? Surely something other than a sledgehammer is available? Surely I'm missing the nuances somewhere? Thanks in advance!
