  1. The problem I am having is that Windows just turns everything straight back on again as soon as I close the window

      It should not have happened. Anyway, if this is the case, then you can detach the email ID from outlook completely to prevent the emails alerts.

      Try the following steps as well:
      1) Open outlook.
      2) Select File > Options > Mail.
      3) Under Message arrival, select or clear the Display a Desktop Alert check box and then select OK.
      Thanks
