Turning off those damned Netware "new email" pop-ups

Summary: When I am logged on to the Lincoln University network, I get bombarded with pop-ups, one per new email, displayed as soon as it arrives. It is an insanely annoying default feature (what was Novell thinking?!). I have figured out how to turn it off when logged on through Windows in Virtual PC (below) but I haven't figured it out in OSX. All I can do is stay unconnected to Lincoln network volumes while working.
How to turnoff Netware popup messages in Windows
Right-click (=Ctrl-click) on the red N logo on the bottom right of the Windows screen.
Select Novell Client Properties - Advanced settings - Receive Broadcast Messages. Set it to None and you will no longer get the pop-ups.
This should work for both the NT/2K/XP and the 9x client
