Stop annoying Internet Security Performance Alerts & eMail scanning

I'm using Norton Internet Security version 22.5.4.24 on Windows 7 Professional. Please, can someone tell me how to disable the Performance Monitoring Alerts? I can't find a way to turn off these annoying alerts without causing the system tray icon to show as if there is something wrong with my Norton product - when in fact nothing is wrong! I don't need alerts telling me to 'FIX' these perceived problems when they have nothing to do with the Norton product itself.

Also - how do I stop Norton from scanning incoming emails? I use MS Outlook and it does a much better job of finding spam emails than Norton. I'm tired of Norton labeling legitimate emails with [Norton AntiSpam] in the subject line. I have Client Integration turned OFF but this doesn't stop Norton from mislabeling emails as Spam.
