Does the "Don't Notify" setting override the wireless radio setting? Why does the
user have click twice to get to the Notification editor? Can't the editor open when
they click Custom Notofication?

Using custom notification

The custom notification filter allows you identify the type of e-mail that prompts
an alert from your handheld.
For example, when you travel, you may want to be alerted only to e-mail sent by
your manager regarding a particular project. You can create a filter that permits
notification only when e-mail meets these conditions.
To create a custom notification filter:
Tap Custom Notification.
1.
Tap Edit.
2.
Use the If the pick lists to create criteria for the notification filter.
3.
The two pick lists and the edit line combine to create a statement that identifies
the type of e-mail that triggers notification. For example, a filter might read, "If
the [From] [Contains] mweston@example.com, Then Notify Me."
You can also use the And button to create a more complex statement, such as "If
the [From] [Contains] mweston@example.com, And if the [Subject] [Starts with]
Apollo Project, Then Notify Me."
When you use this notification filter, only e-mail matching these conditions
prompts a notification alert on your handheld.
