E-Mail Control

I decided to try some new things at work to improve my productivity.  One of those was to check my e-mail less often so I can focus more on my work instead of getting interrupted every 2 minutes.  I called my tech guy to see how I could keep my Lotus Notes from checking for new e-mail every 2 minutes.  His response...uhh...why would you want to do that?  If you change the settings, I suggest you have it check for new messages at a max of every 15 minutes.

Sorry dude, but that kind of defeats the purpose.  I played around with the settings and it looks like my work has blocked me access from changing it.  My e-mail still refreshes every 2 mins.
