Notification paralyses all

I can find no such setting.  But thanks for trying to help.  I'll just go crazy instead.  Best wishes - TRM

When an E-mail arrives,  a little black box shows up,  saying "scanning email".  This is a pain under the pinafore;  everything is paralysed for a while while this displays.   It appear there is nothing I can do,  but wait.  Can one disable this pointless annoucement ?  If so,  how ?

Thanks  -  Mort

T R, Following on from Avinash's posting within the 'Appearance' you can actually just isolate & disable 'Email Scanner notifications'.
