MacOS – How to turn off new mail notifications in Mountain Lion

macosmail.appnotifications

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I'm receiving new email notifications. I previously turned these off in the Mail application. How do I turn them off now?

Best Answer

In Mountain Lion, this is done in the Notifications under System Preferences. Open System Preferences, select Notifications, choose Mail in the left pane, and then select "None".

That always happens when a new version of Mail comes out, the Herald dev needs some time in order to get the plugin compatible.

If you still want to use Herald, just ignore it and watch @heraldapp on Twitter, to be notified when the update is available.

If you don't want Herald anymore, uninstall it by using the uninstaller in the herald.zip download file.

MacOS – Mail in Mountain Lion does not search mail server

I had problems with search and deleting the Spotlight index and reindexing helped.

In a Terminal:

sudo mdutil -i off /
sudo rm -rf /.Spotlight*
sudo mdutil -i on /
sudo mdutil -E /

This will trigger a reindexing, which can take a few hours.
