I don't think it's a matter of your notification center, but you pretty well already covered that. This is normal behavior, provided that the Mail app is running. Even if you hit command+H to hide it to the dock, it will still notify you. I personally love that as I love knowing when a new mail comes in, and being able to know who it was from, however, I can see in your argument where this could be extremely annoying. There may be something in the Voiceover Verbosity settings, but I'm not aware of it. Does it do this if you go into the mail app, then hit Command+Q to quit it?

Hi,
I seem to be notified every time I get a new mail message, which is extremely annoying especially if I’m already in the mail app.

How do I turn this off?
I thought this might be an issue with notification centre, but I’ve already had a look in there and mail isn’t included in that lot.

I can’t find anything in mail prefs..
um, help..!

Many thanks!
Caitlyn, with a few more grey hairs
